#++ # NAME # bounce 5 # SUMMARY # Postfix bounce message template format # SYNOPSIS # \fBbounce_template_file = /etc/postfix/bounce.cf\fR # # \fBpostconf -b\fR [\fItemplate_file\fR] # DESCRIPTION # The Postfix \fBbounce\fR(8) server produces delivery status # notification (DSN) messages for undeliverable mail, delayed # mail, successful delivery or address verification requests. # # By default, these notifications are generated from built-in # templates with message headers and message text. Sites can # override the built-in information by specifying a bounce # template file with the \fBbounce_template_file\fR configuration # parameter. # # This document describes the general procedure to create a # bounce template file, followed by the specific details of # bounce template formats. # GENERAL PROCEDURE # .ad # .fi # To create a customized bounce template file, create a # temporary # copy of the file \fB/etc/postfix/bounce.cf.default\fR and # edit the temporary file. # # To preview the results of $\fIname\fR expansions in the # template text, use the command # # .nf # \fBpostconf -b\fR \fItemporary_file\fR # .fi # # Errors in the template will be reported to the standard # error stream and to the syslog daemon. # # While previewing the text, be sure to pay particular attention # to the expansion of time value parameters that appear in # the delayed mail notification text. # # Once the result is satisfactory, copy the template to the # Postfix configuration directory and specify in main.cf # something like: # # .nf # /etc/postfix/main.cf: # bounce_template_file = /etc/postfix/bounce.cf # .fi # TEMPLATE FILE FORMAT # .ad # .fi # The template file can specify templates for failed mail, # delayed mail, successful delivery or for address verification. # These templates are named \fBfailure_template\fR, # \fBdelay_template\fR, \fBsuccess_template\fR and # \fBverify_template\fR, respectively. You can but do not # have to specify all four templates in a bounce template # file. # # Each template starts with "\fItemplate_name\fB = <
