    SMTP(8)                                                                SMTP(8)

    NAME
           smtp - Postfix SMTP+LMTP client

    SYNOPSIS
           smtp [generic Postfix daemon options] [flags=DORX]

    DESCRIPTION
           The Postfix SMTP+LMTP client implements the SMTP and LMTP mail delivery
           protocols. It processes message delivery requests from the  queue  man-
           ager.  Each  request specifies a queue file, a sender address, a domain
           or host to deliver to, and recipient information.  This program expects
           to be run from the master(8) process manager.

           The  SMTP+LMTP  client  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  status  reports  are  sent to the
           bounce(8), defer(8) or trace(8) daemon as appropriate.

           The SMTP+LMTP client looks up a list of mail  exchanger  addresses  for
           the  destination  host,  sorts  the list by preference, and connects to
           each listed address until it finds a server that responds.

           When a server is not reachable, or when mail delivery fails  due  to  a
           recoverable  error  condition, the SMTP+LMTP client will try to deliver
           the mail to an alternate host.

           After a successful mail transaction, a connection may be saved  to  the
           scache(8)  connection  cache  server,  so  that  it  may be used by any
           SMTP+LMTP client for a subsequent transaction.

           By default, connection caching is enabled temporarily for  destinations
           that have a high volume of mail in the active queue. Connection caching
           can be enabled permanently for specific destinations.

    SMTP DESTINATION SYNTAX
           The Postfix SMTP+LMTP client supports multiple  destinations  separated
           by comma or whitespace (Postfix 3.5 and later).  SMTP destinations have
           the following form:

           domainname

           domainname:port
                  Look up the mail exchangers for the specified domain,  and  con-
                  nect to the specified port (default: smtp).

           [hostname]

           [hostname]:port
                  Look  up  the  address(es) of the specified host, and connect to
                  the specified port (default: smtp).

           [address]

           [address]:port
                  Connect to the host at the specified address, and connect to the
                  specified  port (default: smtp). An IPv6 address must be format-
                  ted as [ipv6:address].

    LMTP DESTINATION SYNTAX
           The Postfix SMTP+LMTP client supports multiple  destinations  separated
           by comma or whitespace (Postfix 3.5 and later).  LMTP destinations have
           the following form:

           unix:pathname
                  Connect to the local UNIX-domain server that  is  bound  to  the
                  specified  pathname.  If  the process runs chrooted, an absolute
                  pathname is interpreted relative to the Postfix queue directory.

           inet:hostname

           inet:hostname:port

           inet:[address]

           inet:[address]:port
                  Connect  to  the  specified  TCP  port on the specified local or
                  remote host. If no  port  is  specified,  connect  to  the  port
                  defined  as  lmtp  in services(4).  If no such service is found,
                  the lmtp_tcp_port configuration parameter (default value of  24)
                  will   be   used.    An   IPv6  address  must  be  formatted  as
                  [ipv6:address].

    SINGLE-RECIPIENT DELIVERY
           By default, the Postfix SMTP+LMTP  client  delivers  mail  to  multiple
           recipients  per delivery request. This is undesirable when prepending a
           Delivered-to: or X-Original-To: message header. To prevent Postfix from
           sending multiple recipients per delivery request, specify

               transport_destination_recipient_limit = 1

           in  the  Postfix main.cf file, where transport is the name in the first
           column of the Postfix master.cf entry for this mail delivery service.

    COMMAND ATTRIBUTE SYNTAX
           flags=DORX (optional)
                  Optional message processing flags.

                  D      Prepend a "Delivered-To: recipient" message  header  with
                         the  envelope  recipient address. Note: for this to work,
                         the transport_destination_recipient_limit must be 1  (see
                         SINGLE-RECIPIENT DELIVERY above for details).

                         The  D  flag  also  enforces loop detection: if a message
                         already contains a Delivered-To:  header  with  the  same
                         recipient  address, then the message is returned as unde-
                         liverable. The address comparison is case insensitive.

                         This feature is available as of Postfix 3.5.

                  O      Prepend an "X-Original-To: recipient" message header with
                         the recipient address as given to Postfix. Note: for this
                         to work, the  transport_destination_recipient_limit  must
                         be 1 (see SINGLE-RECIPIENT DELIVERY above for details).

                         This feature is available as of Postfix 3.5.

                  R      Prepend a "Return-Path: <sender>" message header with the
                         envelope sender address.

                         This feature is available as of Postfix 3.5.

                  X      Indicates that the delivery is final. This  flag  affects
                         the  status  reported  in  "success" DSN (delivery status
                         notification) messages, and  changes  it  from  "relayed"
                         into "delivered".

                         This feature is available as of Postfix 3.5.

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

    DIAGNOSTICS
           Problems  and  transactions  are  logged  to syslogd(8) or postlogd(8).
           Corrupted message files are marked so that the queue manager  can  move
           them to the corrupt queue for further inspection.

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

    BUGS
           SMTP and LMTP connection reuse for TLS (without  closing  the  SMTP  or
           LMTP connection) is not supported before Postfix 3.4.

           SMTP  and LMTP connection reuse assumes that SASL credentials are valid
           for all destinations that map onto the same IP address and TCP port.

    CONFIGURATION PARAMETERS
           Before Postfix version 2.3, the LMTP client is a separate program  that
           implements  only  a  subset  of  the functionality available with SMTP:
           there is no support for TLS, and  connections  are  cached  in-process,
           making it ineffective when the client is used for multiple domains.

           Most smtp_xxx configuration parameters have an lmtp_xxx "mirror" param-
           eter for the equivalent LMTP  feature.  This  document  describes  only
           those LMTP-related parameters that aren't simply "mirror" parameters.

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

           The  text  below provides only a parameter summary. See postconf(5) for
           more details including examples.
