POSTFIX-ADD-POLICY(8) System Manager's Manual POSTFIX-ADD-POLICY(8)
NAME
postfix-add-policy - add policy service to Postfix master.cf
SYNOPSIS
postfix-add-policy [policy name...] [username...] [argv...]
DESCRIPTION
The postfix-add-policy(8) command adds an smtp policy server named pol-
icy name running using username and called as argv to /etc/postfix/mas-
ter.cf to facilitate integration of SMTP policy servers such as postgrey
or postfix-policyd-spf-perl. The configuration is based on the Postfix
SMTPD_POLICY_README. Administrators should verify it is appropriate for
their requirements.
The original file is copied prior to modification and left in /etc/post-
fix to make it possible to revert changes easily.
Available in the Debian package for Postfix version 2.5.3 and later.
DIAGNOSTICS
If the given policy name already appears in the master.cf, a message
will be printed to standard out and master.cf will not be modified.
ENVIRONMENT
MAIL_CONFIG
Directory with Postfix configuration files.
The postfix-add-policy(8) command should use this, but it cur-
rently doesn't. It is hard coded to /etc/postfix. This should
be changed.
CONFIGURATION PARAMETERS
