NAME

       smtp - Postfix SMTP+LMTP client

SYNOPSIS

       smtp [generic Postfix daemon options]

DESCRIPTION

       The  Postfix  SMTP+LMTP  client  implements  the SMTP and LMTP mail delivery protocols. It
       processes message delivery requests from the queue manager. 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

       SMTP destinations have the following form:

       domainname

       domainname:port
              Look up the mail exchangers for the specified domain, and connect 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 formatted as [ipv6:address].

LMTP DESTINATION SYNTAX

       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].

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.

STANDARDS

       RFC 821 (SMTP protocol)
       RFC 822 (ARPA Internet Text Messages)
       RFC 1651 (SMTP service extensions)
       RFC 1652 (8bit-MIME transport)

       RFC 4954 (AUTH command)

DIAGNOSTICS

       Problems and transactions are logged to syslogd(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 postmaster is notified of
       bounces, protocol problems, and of other trouble.

BUGS

       SMTP and LMTP connection caching does not work with TLS. The  necessary  support  for  TLS
       object  passivation  and  re-activation  does not exist without closing the session, which
       defeats the purpose.

       SMTP and LMTP  connection  caching  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"  parameter  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.
