Subject: [pmg-devel] [PATCH pmg-api v3 1/1] fix #3450: api: queue: add POST endpoint for batch deletion/delivery
Date: Wed, 24 Sep 2025 09:13:13 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250924071314.41917-2-h.laimer@proxmox.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250924071314.41917-1-h.laimer@proxmox.com>
Delivery is done using `postqueue -i <id>`, this is slower than using
`postsuper -r -`. But `postsuper -r -` would only re-queue the mails,
they'd also recieve new IDs. Flush should rather be an immediate delivery
attempt.
The flushing of 2000 mails took ~8s, since 2000 is the max amount
possible through the UI this is ok I think.
DELETE endpoints don't accept data, that is why we didn't extend the
existing DELETE endpoint with an optional `ids` field. This is also how
batch actions, including delete, are done for quarantine.
