POSTDROP(1) POSTDROP(1)
|
|
|
|
<b>NAME</b>
|
|
postdrop - Postfix mail posting utility
|
|
|
|
<b>SYNOPSIS</b>
|
|
<b>postdrop</b> [<b>-rv</b>] [<b>-c</b> <i>config_dir</i>]
|
|
|
|
<b>DESCRIPTION</b>
|
|
The <b>postdrop</b> command creates a file in the <b>maildrop</b> direc-
|
|
tory and copies its standard input to the file.
|
|
|
|
Options:
|
|
|
|
<b>-c</b> The <b>main.cf</b> configuration file is in the named
|
|
directory instead of the default configuration
|
|
directory. See also the MAIL_CONFIG environment
|
|
setting below.
|
|
|
|
<b>-r</b> Use a Postfix-internal protocol for reading the
|
|
message from standard input, and for reporting sta-
|
|
tus information on standard output. This is cur-
|
|
rently the only supported method.
|
|
|
|
<b>-v</b> Enable verbose logging for debugging purposes. Mul-
|
|
tiple <b>-v</b> options make the software increasingly
|
|
verbose.
|
|
|
|
<b>SECURITY</b>
|
|
The command is designed to run with set-group ID privi-
|
|
leges, so that it can write to the <b>maildrop</b> queue direc-
|
|
tory and so that it can connect to Postfix daemon pro-
|
|
cesses.
|
|
|
|
<b>DIAGNOSTICS</b>
|
|
Fatal errors: malformed input, I/O error, out of memory.
|
|
Problems are logged to <b>syslogd</b>(8) and to the standard
|
|
error stream. When the input is incomplete, or when the
|
|
process receives a HUP, INT, QUIT or TERM signal, the
|
|
queue file is deleted.
|
|
|
|
<b>ENVIRONMENT</b>
|
|
MAIL_CONFIG
|
|
Directory with the <b>main.cf</b> file. In order to avoid
|
|
exploitation of set-group ID privileges, it is not
|
|
possible to specify arbitrary directory names.
|
|
|
|
A non-standard directory is allowed only if the
|
|
name is listed in the standard <b>main.cf</b> file, in the
|
|
<b>alternate</b><i>_</i><b>config</b><i>_</i><b>directories</b> configuration parame-
|
|
ter value.
|

|
directory names.
