I am using MIME::Lite to send messages via sendmail. I need to track
the status of the message to ensure it was properly accepted by the
local sendmail agent and the remote mail host (i.e. date/time it was
accepted by the remote host, X-Status message id assigned by that host,
if delivery was deferred, etc.)
I can do this in MIME::Lite by setting the Message-ID parameter, then
parsing the sendmail maillog file for this message-ID and returning the
Queue ID. Then, following the Queue ID through the same maillog. This
seems like such a hack (and dangerous setting the Message-ID, but there
doesn't seem to be a way of just fetching it). Is there a better way?
