-NAME
-
- smtpfwdd - SMTP message forwarding daemon.
-
-SYNOPSIS
-
-version 1
-smtpfwdd [ -d spooldir ] [ -u user ] [ -g group ] [ -s mailprog ]
-version 2
-smtpfwdd [ -d spooldir ] [ -u user ] [ -g group ] [ -s mailprog ] [ -M
-maxchildren ] [ -P poll time ]
-
-DESCRIPTION
-
- The smtpfwdd daemon forwards mail messages from a spool directory to
- their eventual destinations. It regularly scans the spool directory in
- which its symboitic companion program smtpd stores messages and invokes
- a mail program (such as sendmail) to forward them. It is the forward
- portion of an SMTP store and foward proxy. smtpfwdd is a standalone
- daemon, usually invoked at system startup.
-
-OPTIONS
-
- o -d spooldir Specify a different spool directory. This should be
- the same directoy in which smtpd is spooling files. (usually
- /usr/spool/smtpd)
- o -u user Specify a user to run as. This user must not be root but
- should normally be a user that is able to run sendmail and use the
- -f option to specify the sender of a mail message.
- o -g group Specify a group to run as. Same as user above.
- o -s mailprog Specify a different mail program to use to forward
- mail. The default is sendmail. Any replacement must be able to be
- invoked in the same manner as sendmail with a -f fromaddress,
- followed by one or more destination addresses on the command line.
- o -M maxchildren specifies how many children smtpfwdd should be
- allowed to spawn at once when delivering mail. Default is
- specified at compile time, usually 10.
- o -P polltime specifies in seconds how often the master smtpfwdd
- process should wake up and check the spool directory for new mail
- to forward. The default is specified at compile time, usually 10
- seconds.
-
-BUGS
-
- Since sendmail is not normally running as a daemon when using smtpd and
- smtpfwdd, one must use cron to periodically invoke sendmail -q so that
- queued messages are retried for eventual delivery.
-
- There are many different variations of sendmail. smtpfwdd will check
- and pay attention to the exit status of the sendmail processes it
- invokes, possibly retrying an invocation of sendmail. If you aren't
- using real unadulterated Berkeley sendmail of a recent vintage, you may
- need to disable the exit status checking at compile time (See option
- SENDMAIL_RETRY in the makefile).
-
- sendmail can't handle a . on one line in a message body. This problem
- is bypassed in smtpfwdd by giving sendmail the option -oitrue. Again,
- if you aren't using genuine sendmail, you may need to disable this at
- compile time (see option SENDMAIL_OITRUE in the makefile).
-
-NOTES
-
- smtpd and smtpfwdd are also available separately from Juniper under
- quite friendly copyright terms. It can be obtained using anonymous ftp
- in the directory ftp://ftp.obtuse.com/pub/smtpd.
