+Postfix local mail pickup
+.SH "SYNOPSIS"
+.na
+.nf
+\fBpickup\fR [generic Postfix daemon options]
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.ad
+.fi
+The \fBpickup\fR(8) daemon waits for hints that new mail has been
+dropped into the \fBmaildrop\fR directory, and feeds it into the
+\fBcleanup\fR(8) daemon.
+Ill\-formatted files are deleted without notifying the originator.
+This program expects to be run from the \fBmaster\fR(8) process
+manager.
+.SH "STANDARDS"
+.na
+.nf
+.ad
+.fi
+None. The \fBpickup\fR(8) daemon does not interact with
+the outside world.
+.SH "SECURITY"
+.na
+.nf
+.ad
+.fi
+The \fBpickup\fR(8) daemon is moderately security sensitive. It runs
+with fixed low privilege and can run in a chrooted environment.
+However, the program reads files from potentially hostile users.
+The \fBpickup\fR(8) daemon opens no files for writing, is careful about
+what files it opens for reading, and does not actually touch any data
+that is sent to its public service endpoint.
+.SH DIAGNOSTICS
+.ad
+.fi
+Problems and transactions are logged to \fBsyslogd\fR(8)
+or \fBpostlogd\fR(8).
+.SH BUGS
+.ad
+.fi
+The \fBpickup\fR(8) daemon copies mail from file to the \fBcleanup\fR(8)
+daemon.  It could avoid message copying overhead by sending a file
+descriptor instead of file data, but then the already complex
+\fBcleanup\fR(8) daemon would have to deal with unfiltered user data.
+.SH "CONFIGURATION PARAMETERS"
+.na
+.nf
+.ad
+.fi
+As the \fBpickup\fR(8) daemon is a relatively long\-running process, up
+to an hour may pass before a \fBmain.cf\fR change takes effect.
+Use the command "\fBpostfix reload\fR" command to speed up a change.
+
+The text below provides only a parameter summary. See
+\fBpostconf\fR(5) for more details including examples.
+.SH "CONTENT INSPECTION CONTROLS"
+.na
+.nf
+.ad
+.fi
+.IP "\fBcontent_filter (empty)\fR"
+After the message is queued, send the entire message to the
+specified \fItransport:destination\fR.
+.IP "\fBreceive_override_options (empty)\fR"
+Enable or disable recipient validation, built\-in content
+filtering, or address mapping.
+.SH "MISCELLANEOUS CONTROLS"
+.na
+.nf
+.ad
+.fi
+.IP "\fBconfig_directory (see 'postconf -d' output)\fR"
+The default location of the Postfix main.cf and master.cf
+configuration files.
+.IP "\fBipc_timeout (3600s)\fR"
+The time limit for sending or receiving information over an internal
+communication channel.
+.IP "\fBline_length_limit (2048)\fR"
+Upon input, long lines are chopped up into pieces of at most
+this length; upon delivery, long lines are reconstructed.
+.IP "\fBmax_idle (100s)\fR"
+The maximum amount of time that an idle Postfix daemon process waits
+for an incoming connection before terminating voluntarily.
+.IP "\fBmax_use (100)\fR"
+The maximal number of incoming connections that a Postfix daemon
+process will service before terminating voluntarily.
+.IP "\fBprocess_id (read\-only)\fR"
+The process ID of a Postfix command or daemon process.
+.IP "\fBprocess_name (read\-only)\fR"
+The process name of a Postfix command or daemon process.
+.IP "\fBqueue_directory (see 'postconf -d' output)\fR"
+The location of the Postfix top\-level queue directory.
+.IP "\fBsyslog_facility (mail)\fR"
+The syslog facility of Postfix logging.
+.IP "\fBsyslog_name (see 'postconf -d' output)\fR"
+A prefix that is prepended to the process name in syslog
+records, so that, for example, "smtpd" becomes "prefix/smtpd".

+Available in Postfix 3.3 and later:
+.IP "\fBservice_name (read\-only)\fR"
+The master.cf service name of a Postfix daemon process.
