No persistent +state is kept because standard system library routines are +not sufficiently robust for update\-intensive applications. + +Although the in\-memory state is kept only temporarily, this +may require a lot of memory on systems that handle connections +from many remote clients.

If a +server process reports +multiple simultaneous clients, state is kept only for the last +reported client. + +The \fBanvil\fR(8) server automatically discards client +request information after it expires.

Each server can handle multiple simultaneous connections. +When all servers are busy while a client connects, the \fBmaster\fR(8) +creates a new \fBproxymap\fR(8) server process, provided that the +process limit is not exceeded. +Each server terminates after serving at least \fB$max_use\fR clients +or after \fB$max_idle\fR seconds of idle time. +.SH "SECURITY" +.na +.nf +.ad +.fi +The \fBproxymap\fR(8) server opens only tables that are +approved via the \fBproxy_read_maps\fR or \fBproxy_write_maps\fR +configuration parameters, does not talk to +users, and can run at fixed low privilege, chrooted or not. +However, running the proxymap server chrooted severely limits +usability, because it can open only chrooted tables. + +The \fBproxymap\fR(8) server is not a trusted daemon process, and must +not be used to look up sensitive information such as UNIX user or +group IDs, mailbox file/directory names or external commands. + +In Postfix version 2.2 and later, the proxymap client recognizes +requests to access a table for security\-sensitive purposes, +and opens the table directly. This allows the same main.cf +setting to be used by sensitive and non\-sensitive processes. + +Postfix\-writable data files should be stored under a dedicated +directory that is writable only by the Postfix mail system, +such as the Postfix\-owned \fBdata_directory\fR. + +In particular, Postfix\-writable files should never exist +in root\-owned directories.

It processes message delivery requests from +the queue manager. Each request specifies a queue file, a sender +address, a domain or host to deliver to, and recipient information. +This program expects to be run from the \fBmaster\fR(8) process +manager. + +The SMTP+LMTP client updates the queue file and marks recipients +as finished, or it informs the queue manager that delivery should +be tried again at a later time. Delivery status reports are sent +to the \fBbounce\fR(8), \fBdefer\fR(8) or \fBtrace\fR(8) daemon as +appropriate. + +The SMTP+LMTP client looks up a list of mail exchanger addresses for +the destination host, sorts the list by preference, and connects +to each listed address until it finds a server that responds. + +When a server is not reachable, or when mail delivery fails due +to a recoverable error condition, the SMTP+LMTP client will try to +deliver the mail to an alternate host. + +After a successful mail transaction, a connection may be saved +to the \fBscache\fR(8) connection cache server, so that it +may be used by any SMTP+LMTP client for a subsequent transaction. + +By default, connection caching is enabled temporarily for +destinations that have a high volume of mail in the active +queue.

For this mode of operation, the program +expects to be run from the \fBmaster\fR(8) process manager. + +Alternatively, the SMTP server be can run in stand\-alone +mode; this is traditionally obtained with "\fBsendmail +\-bs\fR". When the SMTP server runs stand\-alone with non +$\fBmail_owner\fR privileges, it receives mail even while +the mail system is not running, deposits messages directly +into the \fBmaildrop\fR 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 $\fBmail_owner\fR privileges. + +The SMTP server implements a variety of policies for connection +requests, and for parameters given to \fBHELO, ETRN, MAIL FROM, VRFY\fR +and \fBRCPT TO\fR commands. They are detailed below and in the +\fBmain.cf\fR configuration file. +.SH "SECURITY" +.na +.nf +.ad +.fi +The SMTP server is moderately security\-sensitive.

In case of problems, an attempt is made to truncate the +mailbox to its original length. +.SH "QMAIL MAILDIR FORMAT" +.na +.nf +.ad +.fi +When the mailbox location ends in \fB/\fR, the message is delivered +in qmail \fBmaildir\fR format. This format stores one message per file. + +The \fBvirtual\fR(8) delivery agent prepends a \fBDelivered\-To:\fR +message header with the final envelope recipient address, +prepends an \fBX\-Original\-To:\fR header with the recipient address as +given to Postfix, and prepends a +\fBReturn\-Path:\fR message header with the envelope sender address. + +By definition, \fBmaildir\fR format does not require application\-level +file locking during mail delivery or retrieval. +.SH "MAILBOX OWNERSHIP" +.na +.nf +.ad +.fi +Mailbox ownership is controlled by the \fBvirtual_uid_maps\fR +and \fBvirtual_gid_maps\fR lookup tables, which are indexed +with the full recipient address.

See also the next section +for a few exceptions with optional address extensions. +.SH "TABLE SEARCH ORDER" +.na +.nf +.ad +.fi +Normally, a lookup table is specified as a text file that +serves as input to the \fBpostmap\fR(1) command.

This program is not designed to run chrooted. + +The \fBvirtual\fR(8) delivery agent disallows regular expression +substitution of $1 etc. in regular expression lookup tables, +because that would open a security hole. + +The \fBvirtual\fR(8) delivery agent will silently ignore requests +to use the \fBproxymap\fR(8) server. Instead it will open the +table directly.

In all other problem cases, mail for +an existing recipient is deferred and a warning is logged. + +Problems and transactions are logged to \fBsyslogd\fR(8) +or \fBpostlogd\fR(8). +Corrupted message files are marked so that the queue +manager can move them to the \fBcorrupt\fR queue afterwards. + +Depending on the setting of the \fBnotify_classes\fR parameter, +the postmaster is notified of bounces and of other trouble. +.SH BUGS +.ad +.fi +This delivery agent supports address extensions in email +addresses and in lookup table keys, but does not propagate +address extension information to the result of table lookup. + +Postfix should have lookup tables that can return multiple result +attributes.
