Typically the +file contains only a small subset of all parameters; parameters +not specified are left at their default values. +.PP +The general format of the main.cf file is as follows: +.IP \(bu +Each logical line has the form "parameter = value". +Whitespace around the "=" is ignored, as is whitespace at the +end of a logical line. +.IP \(bu +Empty lines and whitespace-only lines are ignored, as are lines +whose first non-whitespace character is a `#'. +.IP \(bu +A logical line starts with non-whitespace text. A line that starts +with whitespace continues a logical line. +.IP \(bu +A parameter value may refer to other parameters. +.RS +.IP \(bu +The expressions "$name" and "${name}" are recursively replaced with +the value of the named parameter. The parameter name must contain +only characters from the set [a-zA-Z0-9_]. An undefined parameter +value is replaced with the empty value. +.IP \(bu +The expressions "${name?value}" and "${name?{value}}" are replaced +with "value" when "$name" is non-empty. The parameter name must +contain only characters from the set [a-zA-Z0-9_]. These forms are +supported with Postfix versions >= 2.2 and >= 3.0, respectively. +.IP \(bu +The expressions "${name:value}" and "${name:{value}}" are replaced +with "value" when "$name" is empty. The parameter name must contain +only characters from the set [a-zA-Z0-9_]. These forms are supported +with Postfix versions >= 2.2 and >= 3.0, respectively. +.IP \(bu +The expression "${name?{value1}:{value2}}" is replaced with "value1" +when "$name" is non-empty, and with "value2" when "$name" is empty. +The "{}" is required for "value1", optional for "value2". The +parameter name must contain only characters from the set [a-zA-Z0-9_]. +This form is supported with Postfix versions >= 3.0. +.IP \(bu +The first item inside "${...}" may be a relational expression of the +form: "{value3} == {value4}". Besides the "==" (equality) operator +Postfix supports "!=" (inequality), "<", "<=", ">=", and ">". The +comparison is numerical when both operands are all digits, otherwise +the comparison is lexicographical. These forms are supported with +Postfix versions >= 3.0. +.IP \(bu +Each "value" is subject to recursive named parameter and relational +expression evaluation, except where noted. +.IP \(bu +Whitespace before or after each "{value}" is ignored. +.IP \(bu +Specify "$$" to produce a single "$" character. +.IP \(bu +The legacy form "$(...)" is equivalent to the preferred form "${...}". +.RE +.IP \(bu +When the same parameter is defined multiple times, only the last +instance is remembered. +.IP \(bu +Otherwise, the order of main.cf parameter definitions does not matter. +.PP +The remainder of this document is a description of all Postfix +configuration parameters. Default values are shown after the +parameter name in parentheses, and can be looked up with the +"\fBpostconf \-d\fR" command. +.PP +Note: this is not an invitation to make changes to Postfix +configuration parameters. Unnecessary changes can impair the +operation of the mail system. -- cgit v1.2.3
