+.ad
+.fi
+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, lookup tables can be specified as MongoDB
+databases. In order to use MongoDB lookups, define a MongoDB
+source as a lookup table in main.cf, for example:
+.nf
+ alias_maps = mongodb:/etc/postfix/mongodb\-aliases.cf
+.fi
+
+In this example, the file /etc/postfix/mongodb\-aliases.cf
+has the same format as the Postfix main.cf file, and can
+specify the parameters described below. It is also possible
+to have the configuration in main.cf; see "OBSOLETE MAIN.CF
+PARAMETERS" below.
+
+It is strongly recommended to use proxy:mongodb, in order
+to reduce the number of database connections. For example:
+.nf
+ alias_maps = proxy:mongodb:/etc/postfix/mongodb\-aliases.cf
+.fi
+
+Note: when using proxy:mongodb:/\fIfile\fR, the file must
+be readable by the unprivileged postfix user (specified
+with the Postfix mail_owner configuration parameter).

+
+This parameter supports the following '%' expansions:
+.RS
+.IP "\fB%%\fR"
+This is replaced by a literal '%' character.
+.IP "\fB%s\fR"
+This is replaced by the input key. The %s must appear in
+quotes, because all Postfix queries are strings containing
+(parts from) a domain or email address. Postfix makes no
+numerical queries.
+.IP "\fB%u\fR"
+When the input key is an address of the form user@domain,
+\fB%u\fR is replaced by the local part of the address.
+Otherwise, \fB%u\fR is replaced by the entire search string.
+.IP "\fB%d\fR"
+When the input key is an address of the form user@domain,
+\fB%d\fR is replaced by the domain part of the address.
+.IP "\fB%[1\-9]\fR"
+The patterns %1, %2, ... %9 are replaced by the corresponding
+most significant component of the input key's domain. If
+the input key is \fIuser@mail.example.com\fR, then %1 is
+\fBcom\fR, %2 is \fBexample\fR and %3 is \fBmail\fR.

+The upper\-case and decimal digit expansions interpolate the
+parts of the input key rather than the result. Their behavior
+is identical to that described with \fBquery_filter\fR, and

+whose key does not contain all the information specified
+in the result template are suppressed and return no results.
+.RE
+.IP
+For example, using "result_format = smtp:[%s]" allows one
+to use a mailHost attribute as the basis of a transport(5)
+table. After applying the result format, multiple values
+are concatenated as comma separated strings. The expansion_limit
+parameter explained below allows one to restrict the number
+of values in the result, which is especially useful for
+maps that should return a single value.
+
+The default value \fB%s\fR specifies that each
+attribute value should be used as is.
+
+NOTE: DO NOT put quotes around the result format! The result
+is not a JSON string.
+.IP "\fBdomain (default: no domain list)\fR"
+This is a list of domain names, paths to files, or "type:table"
+databases. When specified, only fully qualified search keys
+with a *non\-empty* localpart and a matching domain are
+eligible for lookup: 'user' lookups, bare domain lookups
+and "@domain" lookups are not performed. This can significantly
+reduce the query load on the backend database. Example:
+.nf
+ domain = postfix.org, hash:/etc/postfix/searchdomains
+.fi
+.IP "\fBexpansion_limit (default: 0)\fR"
+A limit on the total number of result elements returned (as
+a comma separated list) by a lookup against the map. A
+setting of zero disables the limit. Lookups fail with a
+temporary error if the limit is exceeded. Setting the limit
+to 1 ensures that lookups do not return multiple values.
