NAME

       qmqp-source - multi-threaded QMQP test generator

SYNOPSIS

       qmqp-source [options] [inet:]host[:port]

       qmqp-source [options] unix:pathname

DESCRIPTION

       qmqp-source  connects  to  the named host and TCP port (default 628) and sends one or more
       messages to it, either sequentially or in parallel. The program speaks the QMQP  protocol.
       Connections  can  be  made to UNIX-domain and IPv4 or IPv6 servers.  IPv4 and IPv6 are the
       default.

       Note: this is an unsupported test program. No attempt is made  to  maintain  compatibility
       between successive versions.

       Arguments:

       -4     Connect  to  the  server with IPv4. This option has no effect when Postfix is built
              without IPv6 support.

       -6     Connect to the server with IPv6. This option is not available when Postfix is built
              without IPv6 support.

       -c     Display a running counter that is incremented each time a delivery completes.

       -C count
              When  a  host sends RESET instead of SYN|ACK, try count times before giving up. The
              default count is 1. Specify a larger count in order to work around a  problem  with
              TCP/IP stacks that send RESET when the listen queue is full.

       -f from
              Use the specified sender address (default: <foo@myhostname>).

       -l length
              Send length bytes as message payload. The length includes the message headers.

       -m message_count
              Send the specified number of messages (default: 1).

       -M myhostname
              Use  the  specified  hostname  or  [address]  in  the  default sender and recipient
              addresses, instead of the machine hostname.

       -r recipient_count
              Send the specified number of recipients per transaction  (default:  1).   Recipient
              names are generated by prepending a number to the recipient address.

       -s session_count
              Run the specified number of QMQP sessions in parallel (default: 1).

       -t to  Use the specified recipient address (default: <foo@myhostname>).

       -R interval
              Wait  for  a random period of time 0 <= n <= interval between messages.  Suspending
              one thread does not affect other delivery threads.

       -v     Make the program more verbose, for debugging purposes.

       -w interval
              Wait a fixed time between messages.  Suspending one thread does  not  affect  other
              delivery threads.
