I seem to have a odd issue I am using postfix using a gmail account for email notifications I have tested sending a email notification from the command line all working well....
I create a filter to alert me on the following criteria attached screenshot:
Filter.jpg
If I test the filter before running the filter in the *background works well only 1 record displays with the alert I am interested in pops into my inbox very happy.
my problem starts as soon as I submit this into background processing I start getting flooded with older events over a 20 sec period ... I have looked through logs no errors Just keeps mailing me ... I have tried creating basic filters but still same problem and when I preview the filter all works well 1 record... very stuck how to trouble shoot this one...
"zmfilter" has no errors in the log otherwise I would attach....
other than this issue works fantastically.
any help would be greatly received
