    NAME
           smtpd - Postfix SMTP server

    SYNOPSIS
           smtpd [generic Postfix daemon options]

           sendmail -bs

    DESCRIPTION
           The  SMTP  server accepts network connection requests and performs zero
           or more SMTP transactions per connection.   Each  received  message  is
           piped  through  the  cleanup(8) daemon, and is placed into the incoming
           queue as one single queue file.  For this mode of operation,  the  pro-
           gram expects to be run from the master(8) process manager.

           Alternatively,  the SMTP server be can run in stand-alone mode; this is
           traditionally obtained with "sendmail -bs".  When the SMTP server  runs
           stand-alone  with  non  $mail_owner  privileges,  it receives mail even
           while the mail system is not running, deposits messages  directly  into
           the  maildrop 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 $mail_owner privileges.

           The  SMTP  server  implements  a  variety  of  policies  for connection
           requests, and for parameters given to HELO, ETRN, MAIL FROM,  VRFY  and
           RCPT TO commands. They are detailed below and in the main.cf configura-
           tion file.

    SECURITY
           The SMTP server is moderately  security-sensitive.  It  talks  to  SMTP
           clients  and  to DNS servers on the network. The SMTP server can be run
           chrooted at fixed low privilege.

    DIAGNOSTICS
           Problems and transactions are logged to syslogd(8) or postlogd(8).

           Depending on the setting of the notify_classes parameter, the  postmas-
           ter  is  notified of bounces, protocol problems, policy violations, and
           of other trouble.

    CONFIGURATION PARAMETERS
           Changes to main.cf are picked up automatically, as  smtpd(8)  processes
           run for only a limited amount of time. Use the command "postfix reload"
           to speed up a change.

           more details including examples.

    AFTER QUEUE EXTERNAL CONTENT INSPECTION CONTROLS
           As  of  version  1.0,  Postfix can be configured to send new mail to an
           external content filter AFTER the mail is queued. This  content  filter
           is  expected to inject mail back into a (Postfix or other) MTA for fur-
           ther delivery. See the FILTER_README document for details.

           incoming mail to a real-time SMTP-based content filter BEFORE  mail  is
           queued.  This content filter is expected to inject mail back into Post-
           fix.  See the SMTPD_PROXY_README document for details on how to config-
           ure and operate this feature.

           As of version 2.3, Postfix supports the Sendmail version 8 Milter (mail
           filter)  protocol.  These content filters run outside Postfix. They can
           inspect the SMTP command  stream  and  the  message  content,  and  can

    TARPIT CONTROLS
           When a remote SMTP client makes errors, the  Postfix  SMTP  server  can
           insert  delays  before  responding. This can help to slow down run-away
           software.  The behavior is controlled by an error counter  that  counts
           the number of errors within an SMTP session that a client makes without
           delivering mail.

           smtpd_error_sleep_time (1s)
                  With Postfix version 2.1 and later:  the  SMTP  server  response
                  delay  after a client has made more than $smtpd_soft_error_limit
                  errors, and fewer than $smtpd_hard_error_limit  errors,  without
                  delivering mail.

                  The  number  of  errors  a remote SMTP client is allowed to make
                  without delivering mail before the  Postfix  SMTP  server  slows
                  down all its responses.

           smtpd_hard_error_limit (normal: 20, overload: 1)
                  The  maximal number of errors a remote SMTP client is allowed to
                  make without delivering mail.

           smtpd_junk_command_limit (normal: 100, overload: 1)
                  The number of junk commands (NOOP, VRFY, ETRN or  RSET)  that  a
                  remote  SMTP  client  can  send  before  the Postfix SMTP server
                  starts to increment the error counter with each junk command.

           Available in Postfix version 2.1 and later:

           smtpd_recipient_overshoot_limit (1000)
                  The number of recipients that a remote SMTP client can  send  in
                  excess  of  the  limit  specified  with  $smtpd_recipient_limit,
                  before the Postfix SMTP server increments the per-session  error
                  count for each excess recipient.

    ACCESS POLICY DELEGATION CONTROLS
           As  of version 2.1, Postfix can be configured to delegate access policy

    SENDER AND RECIPIENT ADDRESS VERIFICATION CONTROLS
           Postfix version 2.1 introduces sender and recipient  address  verifica-
           tion.  This feature is implemented by sending probe email messages that
           are  not  actually  delivered.   This  feature  is  requested  via  the
           reject_unverified_sender    and    reject_unverified_recipient   access
           restrictions.  The status of verification probes is maintained  by  the
           verify(8)  server.  See the file ADDRESS_VERIFICATION_README for infor-
           mation about how to configure and operate the Postfix  sender/recipient
           address verification service.
