+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</i><b>_</b><i>dir</i>]
+
+<b>DESCRIPTION</b>
+ The <a href="postdrop.1.html"><b>postdrop</b>(1)</a> command creates a file in the <b>maildrop</b> directory and
+ copies its standard input to the file.
+
+ Options:
+
+ <b>-c</b> <i>config</i><b>_</b><i>dir</i>
+ The <a href="postconf.5.html"><b>main.cf</b></a> 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 status information on standard
+ output. This is currently the only supported method.
+
+ <b>-v</b> Enable verbose logging for debugging purposes. Multiple <b>-v</b>
+ options make the software increasingly verbose. As of Postfix
+ 2.3, this option is available for the super-user only.
+
+<b>SECURITY</b>
+ The command is designed to run with set-group ID privileges, so that it
+ can write to the <b>maildrop</b> queue directory and so that it can connect to
+ Postfix daemon processes.
+
+<b>DIAGNOSTICS</b>
+ Fatal errors: malformed input, I/O error, out of memory. Problems are
+ logged to <b>syslogd</b>(8) or <a href="postlogd.8.html"><b>postlogd</b>(8)</a> 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 <a href="postconf.5.html"><b>main.cf</b></a> file. In order to avoid exploitation
+ of set-group ID privileges, a non-standard directory is allowed
+ only if:
+
+ <b>o</b> The name is listed in the standard <a href="postconf.5.html"><b>main.cf</b></a> file with the
+ <b><a href="postconf.5.html#alternate_config_directories">alternate_config_directories</a></b> configuration parameter.
+
+ <b>o</b> The command is invoked by the super-user.
+
+<b>CONFIGURATION PARAMETERS</b>
+ The following <a href="postconf.5.html"><b>main.cf</b></a> parameters are especially relevant to this pro-
+ gram. The text below provides only a parameter summary. See <a href="postconf.5.html"><b>post-</b></a>
