# NAME
# tcp_table 5
# SUMMARY
# Postfix client/server table lookup protocol
# SYNOPSIS
# \fBpostmap -q "\fIstring\fB" tcp:\fIhost:port\fR
#
# \fBpostmap -q - tcp:\fIhost:port\fB <\fIinputfile\fR
# DESCRIPTION
# The Postfix mail system uses optional tables for address
# rewriting or mail routing. These tables are usually in
# \fBdbm\fR or \fBdb\fR format. Alternatively, table lookups
# can be directed to a TCP server.
#
# To find out what types of lookup tables your Postfix system
# supports use the "\fBpostconf -m\fR" command.
#
# To test lookup tables, use the "\fBpostmap -q\fR" command as
# described in the SYNOPSIS above.
# PROTOCOL DESCRIPTION
# .ad
# .fi
# The TCP map class implements a very simple protocol: the client
# sends a request, and the server sends one reply. Requests and
# replies are sent as one line of ASCII text, terminated by the
# ASCII newline character. Request and reply parameters (see below)
# are separated by whitespace.
#
# Send and receive operations must complete in 100 seconds.
# REQUEST FORMAT
# .ad
# .fi
# The tcp_table protocol supports only the lookup request.
# The request has the following form:
# .IP "\fBget\fR SPACE \fIkey\fR NEWLINE"
# Look up data under the specified key.
# .PP
# Postfix will not generate partial search keys such as domain
# names without one or more subdomains, network addresses
# without one or more least-significant octets, or email
# addresses without the localpart, address extension or domain
# portion. This behavior is also found with cidr:, pcre:, and
# regexp: tables.
# REPLY FORMAT
# .ad
# .fi
# Each reply specifies a status code and text. Replies must be no
# longer than 4096 characters including the newline terminator.
# .IP "\fB500\fR SPACE \fItext\fR NEWLINE"
# In case of a lookup request, the requested data does not exist.
# The text describes the nature of the problem.
# .IP "\fB400\fR SPACE \fItext\fR NEWLINE"
# This indicates an error condition. The text describes the nature of
# the problem. The client should retry the request later.
# .IP "\fB200\fR SPACE \fItext\fR NEWLINE"
# The request was successful. In the case of a lookup request,
# the text contains an encoded version of the requested data.
# ENCODING
# .ad
# .fi
# In request and reply parameters, the character %, each non-printing
# character, and each whitespace character must be replaced by %XX,
# where XX is the corresponding ASCII hexadecimal character value. The
# hexadecimal codes can be specified in any case (upper, lower, mixed).
#
# The Postfix client always encodes a request.
# The server may omit the encoding as long as the reply
# is guaranteed to not contain the % or NEWLINE character.
# SECURITY
# .ad
# .fi
# Do not use TCP lookup tables for security critical purposes.
# The client-server connection is not protected and the server
# is not authenticated.
# BUGS
# Only the lookup method is currently implemented.
#
# The client does not hang up when the connection is idle for
# a long time.
