POSTDROP(1)                                           POSTDROP(1)


<b>NAME</b>
       postdrop - Postfix mail posting agent

<b>SYNOPSIS</b>
       <b>postdrop</b> [<i>option</i> <i>...</i>]

<b>DESCRIPTION</b>
       The <b>postdrop</b> command creates a file in the <b>maildrop</b> direc-
       tory and copies its standard input to the file.

       The command is designed to run  with  set-gid  privileges,
       and  with  group  write  permission  to the <b>maildrop</b> queue
       directory.

       The <b>postdrop</b> command is automatically invoked by the <a href="sendmail.1.html"><b>send-</b>
       <b>mail</b>(1)</a>  mail posting agent when the <b>maildrop</b> queue direc-
       tory is not world-writable.

       Options:

       <b>-v</b>     Enable verbose logging for debugging purposes. Mul-
              tiple  <b>-v</b>  options  make  the software increasingly
              verbose.

<b>SECURITY</b>
       This program is designed so that it can run with  set-user
       (or group) id privileges.

<b>DIAGNOSTICS</b>
       Fatal  errors:  malformed input, I/O error, out of memory.
       Problems are logged to  <b>syslogd</b>(8)  and  to  the  standard
       error  stream.   When the input is incomplete, or when the
       process receives a HUP, INT,  QUIT  or  TERM  signal,  the
       queue file is deleted.

<b>ENVIRONMENT</b>
       The  program  deletes all environment information, because
       the C library can't be trusted.

<b>FILES</b>
       /var/spool/postfix, mail queue
       /etc/postfix, configuration files

<b>CONFIGURATION</b> <b>PARAMETERS</b>
       See the Postfix <b>main.cf</b> file for syntax  details  and  for
       default  values.  Use  the  <b>postfix</b> <b>reload</b> command after a
       configuration change.

       <b>queue</b><i>_</i><b>directory</b>
              Top-level directory of the Postfix queue.  This  is
              also the root directory of Postfix daemons that run
              chrooted.





                                                                1
