0.30-dev I had everything pperl'd except the plugin I was working on, and saw every now and then a burst of half a dozen logs for lib Qpsmtpd.pm line 190 new. plugin bonks there on the check for it being already loaded or not, but only at most half the time, and then six times in a row. I pperl'd the plugin after I got it working and haven't seen that again, yet, for a few hours. Maybe running with everything but that one plugin pperl'd could have confusion in the line 190 check for whether it's loaded. No pperl shebang line in that plugin when error. There was a bug in the code. Maybe a bug-bitten plugin instance persisted by means other than by pperl, a few messages used other code, then bug-eaten code came up for review, six precious spams lost to lib/Qpsmtpd.pm line 190 new "check for already loaded", confused by a maggot-infested zombie not quite ready for prime time but it was too big to fit into the garbage truck so it ate New York instead. But maggots themselves only eat dead stuff, don't blame them, they were only along for the ride, licking up zombie pus that nurses wouldn't touch for money. It's those half-dead zombies that jam the compactor on the garbage truck, and they may perceive that as trying to eat them, and get hostile, and eat the garbage truck. If you don't know, you better tell somebody! I'm quaking in my boots--I was asleep when that hostility happened to be contained internally in my little box--it coulda been the other way--I'm going to sleep with my shoes on. I have to go check my log now. -Bob DoddsThread Next
