ERROR(8) ERROR(8)
<b>NAME</b>
error - Postfix error mailer
<b>SYNOPSIS</b>
<b>error</b> [generic Postfix daemon options]
<b>DESCRIPTION</b>
The Postfix error mailer processes message delivery
requests from the queue manager. Each request specifies a
queue file, a sender address, a domain or host name that
is treated as the reason for non-delivery, and recipient
information. This program expects to be run from the <a href="master.8.html"><b>mas-</b>
<b>ter</b>(8)</a> process manager.
The error mailer client forces all recipients to bounce,
using the domain or host information as the reason for
non-delivery, 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 problem reports are sent to the <a href="bounce.8.html"><b>bounce</b>(8)</a> or
<a href="defer.8.html"><b>defer</b>(8)</a> daemon as appropriate.
<b>SECURITY</b>
The error mailer is not security-sensitive. It does not
talk to the network, and can be run chrooted at fixed low
privilege.
<b>STANDARDS</b>
None.
<b>DIAGNOSTICS</b>
Problems and transactions are logged to <b>syslogd</b>(8).
Depending on the setting of the <b>notify</b><i>_</i><b>classes</b> parameter,
the postmaster is notified of bounces and of other trou-
ble.
<b>BUGS</b>
<b>CONFIGURATION</b> <b>PARAMETERS</b>
