QMQPD(8) QMQPD(8)
<b>NAME</b>
qmqpd - Postfix QMQP server
<b>SYNOPSIS</b>
<b>qmqpd</b> [generic Postfix daemon options]
<b>DESCRIPTION</b>
The Postfix QMQP server receives one message per connec-
tion. Each message is piped through the <a href="cleanup.8.html"><b>cleanup</b>(8)</a> dae-
mon, and is placed into the <b>incoming</b> queue as one single
queue file. The program expects to be run from the <a href="master.8.html"><b>mas-</b></a>
<a href="master.8.html"><b>ter</b>(8)</a> process manager.
The QMQP server implements one access policy: only explic-
itly authorized client hosts are allowed to use the ser-
vice.
<b>SECURITY</b>
The QMQP server is moderately security-sensitive. It talks
to QMQP clients and to DNS servers on the network. The
QMQP server can be run chrooted at fixed low privilege.
<b>DIAGNOSTICS</b>
Problems and transactions are logged to <b>syslogd</b>(8).
<b>BUGS</b>
The QMQP protocol provides only one server reply per mes-
sage delivery. It is therefore not possible to reject
individual recipients.
The QMQP protocol requires the server to receive the
entire message before replying. If a message is malformed,
or if any netstring component is longer than acceptable,
Postfix replies immediately and closes the connection. It
is left up to the client to handle the situation.
<b>CONFIGURATION</b> <b>PARAMETERS</b>
The following <b>main.cf</b> parameters are especially relevant
to this program. See the Postfix <b>main.cf</b> file for syntax
details and for default values. Use the <b>postfix</b> <b>reload</b>
command after a configuration change.
<b>Miscellaneous</b>
<b>always</b><i>_</i><b>bcc</b>
Address to send a copy of each message that enters
the system.
<b>debug</b><i>_</i><b>peer</b><i>_</i><b>level</b>
Increment in verbose logging level when a remote
host matches a pattern in the <b>debug</b><i>_</i><b>peer</b><i>_</i><b>list</b>
parameter.
<b>debug</b><i>_</i><b>peer</b><i>_</i><b>list</b>
List of domain or network patterns. When a remote
host matches a pattern, increase the verbose log-
ging level by the amount specified in the
<b>debug</b><i>_</i><b>peer</b><i>_</i><b>level</b> parameter.
<b>hopcount</b><i>_</i><b>limit</b>
Limit the number of <b>Received:</b> message headers.
<b>qmqpd</b><i>_</i><b>authorized</b><i>_</i><b>clients</b>
A list of domain or network patterns that specifies
what clients are allowed to use the service.
<b>qmqpd</b><i>_</i><b>timeout</b>
Limit the time to send a server response and to
receive a client request.
<b>soft</b><i>_</i><b>bounce</b>
Change hard (D) reject responses into soft (Z)
reject responses. This can be useful for testing
purposes.
<b>Content</b> <b>inspection</b> <b>controls</b>
<b>content</b><i>_</i><b>filter</b>
The name of a mail delivery transport that filters
mail and that either bounces mail or re-injects the
result back into Postfix. This parameter uses the
same syntax as the right-hand side of a Postfix
transport table.
<b>Resource</b> <b>controls</b>
<b>line</b><i>_</i><b>length</b><i>_</i><b>limit</b>
Limit the amount of memory in bytes used for the
handling of partial input lines, and the length of
sender and recipient addresses that are received
from client.
<b>message</b><i>_</i><b>size</b><i>_</i><b>limit</b>
Limit the total size in bytes of a message, includ-
ing on-disk storage for sender and recipient
address information.
<b>Tarpitting</b>
<b>qmqpd</b><i>_</i><b>error</b><i>_</i><b>sleep</b><i>_</i><b>time</b>
Time to wait in seconds before informing the client
of a problem. This slows down run-away errors.
