SMTPD(8)                                                              SMTPD(8)

<b>NAME</b>
       smtpd - Postfix SMTP server

<b>SYNOPSIS</b>
       <b>smtpd</b> [generic Postfix daemon options]

       <b>sendmail -bs</b>

<b>DESCRIPTION</b>
       The  SMTP  server accepts network connection requests and performs zero
       or more SMTP transactions per connection.   Each  received  message  is
       piped  through  the  <a href="cleanup.8.html"><b>cleanup</b>(8)</a> daemon, and is placed into the <b>incoming</b>
       queue as one single queue file.  For this mode of operation,  the  pro-
       gram expects to be run from the <a href="master.8.html"><b>master</b>(8)</a> process manager.

       Alternatively,  the SMTP server be can run in stand-alone mode; this is
       traditionally obtained with "<b>sendmail -bs</b>".  When the SMTP server  runs
       stand-alone  with  non  $<b><a href="postconf.5.html#mail_owner">mail_owner</a></b>  privileges,  it receives mail even
       while the mail system is not running, deposits messages  directly  into
       the  <b>maildrop</b> queue, and disables the SMTP server's access policies. As
       of Postfix version 2.3, the SMTP server refuses to  receive  mail  from
       the network when it runs with non $<b><a href="postconf.5.html#mail_owner">mail_owner</a></b> privileges.

       The  SMTP  server  implements  a  variety  of  policies  for connection
       requests, and for parameters given to <b>HELO, ETRN, MAIL FROM,  VRFY</b>  and
       <b>RCPT TO</b> commands. They are detailed below and in the <a href="postconf.5.html"><b>main.cf</b></a> configura-
       tion file.

<b>SECURITY</b>
       The SMTP server is moderately  security-sensitive.  It  talks  to  SMTP
       clients  and  to DNS servers on the network. The SMTP server can be run
       chrooted at fixed low privilege.

       Problems and transactions are logged to <b>syslogd</b>(8) or <a href="postlogd.8.html"><b>postlogd</b>(8)</a>.

       Depending on the setting of the <b><a href="postconf.5.html#notify_classes">notify_classes</a></b> parameter, the  postmas-
       ter  is  notified of bounces, protocol problems, policy violations, and
       of other trouble.

<b>CONFIGURATION PARAMETERS</b>
       Changes to <a href="postconf.5.html"><b>main.cf</b></a> are picked up automatically, as  <a href="smtpd.8.html"><b>smtpd</b>(8)</a>  processes
       run for only a limited amount of time. Use the command "<b>postfix reload</b>"
       to speed up a change.

<b>AFTER QUEUE EXTERNAL CONTENT INSPECTION CONTROLS</b>
       As  of  version  1.0,  Postfix can be configured to send new mail to an
       external content filter AFTER the mail is queued. This  content  filter
       is  expected to inject mail back into a (Postfix or other) MTA for fur-
       ther delivery. See the <a href="FILTER_README.html">FILTER_README</a> document for details.

<b>BEFORE QUEUE EXTERNAL CONTENT INSPECTION CONTROLS</b>
       As  of  version  2.1, the Postfix SMTP server can be configured to send
       incoming mail to a real-time SMTP-based content filter BEFORE  mail  is
       queued.  This content filter is expected to inject mail back into Post-
       fix.  See the <a href="SMTPD_PROXY_README.html">SMTPD_PROXY_README</a> document for details on how to config-
       ure and operate this feature.

<b>BEFORE QUEUE MILTER CONTROLS</b>

       filter)  protocol.  These content filters run outside Postfix. They can
       inspect the SMTP command  stream  and  the  message  content,  and  can
       request  modifications  before mail is queued. For details see the <a href="MILTER_README.html">MIL</a>-

<b>TARPIT CONTROLS</b>
       When a remote SMTP client makes errors, the  Postfix  SMTP  server  can
       insert  delays  before  responding. This can help to slow down run-away
       software.  The behavior is controlled by an error counter  that  counts
       the number of errors within an SMTP session that a client makes without
       delivering mail.

       <b><a href="postconf.5.html#smtpd_error_sleep_time">smtpd_error_sleep_time</a> (1s)</b>

              errors, and fewer than $<a href="postconf.5.html#smtpd_hard_error_limit">smtpd_hard_error_limit</a>  errors,  without

              The  number  of  errors  a remote SMTP client is allowed to make
              without delivering mail before the  Postfix  SMTP  server  slows
              down all its responses.

       <b><a href="postconf.5.html#smtpd_hard_error_limit">smtpd_hard_error_limit</a> (normal: 20, overload: 1)</b>

              The number of junk commands (NOOP, VRFY, ETRN or  RSET)  that  a
              remote  SMTP  client  can  send  before  the Postfix SMTP server

              before the Postfix SMTP server increments the per-session  error
              count for each excess recipient.

<b>ACCESS POLICY DELEGATION CONTROLS</b>
       As  of version 2.1, Postfix can be configured to delegate access policy
       decisions to an external server that runs  outside  Postfix.   See  the
       file <a href="SMTPD_POLICY_README.html">SMTPD_POLICY_README</a> for more information.
