<b>newaliases</b>
<b>postalias -q</b> <i>name</i> <b>[</b><i>file-type</i><b>]:[</b><i>file-name</i><b>]</b>
-<b>DESCRIPTION</b>
+<b><a name="description">DESCRIPTION</a></b>
The optional <a href="aliases.5.html"><b>aliases</b>(5)</a> table (<a href="postconf.5.html#alias_maps">alias_maps</a>) redirects mail for local
recipients. The redirections are processed by the Postfix <a href="local.8.html"><b>local</b>(8)</a>
delivery agent. This table is always searched with an email address
disallowed by default. To enable, edit the <b><a href="postconf.5.html#allow_mail_to_commands">allow_mail_to_com</a>-</b>
<b><a href="postconf.5.html#allow_mail_to_commands">mands</a></b> and <b><a href="postconf.5.html#allow_mail_to_files">allow_mail_to_files</a></b> configuration parameters.
-<b>ADDRESS EXTENSION</b>
+<b><a name="address_extension">ADDRESS EXTENSION</a></b>
When alias database search fails, and the recipient localpart contains
the optional recipient delimiter (e.g., <i>user+foo</i>), the search is
repeated for the unextended address (e.g., <i>user</i>).
unmatched address extension (<i>+foo</i>) is propagated to the result of table
lookup.
-<b>CASE FOLDING</b>
+<b><a name="case_folding">CASE FOLDING</a></b>
The <a href="local.8.html">local(8)</a> delivery agent always folds the search string to lowercase
before database lookup.
-<b>REGULAR EXPRESSION TABLES</b>
+<b><a name="regular_expression_tables">REGULAR EXPRESSION TABLES</a></b>
This section describes how the table lookups change when the table is
given in the form of regular expressions. For a description of regular
expression lookup table syntax, see <a href="regexp_table.5.html"><b>regexp_table</b>(5)</a> or <a href="pcre_table.5.html"><b>pcre_table</b>(5)</a>.
Lookup results are the same as with indexed file lookups. For security
reasons there is no support for <b>$1</b>, <b>$2</b> etc. substring interpolation.
-<b>SECURITY</b>
+<b><a name="security">SECURITY</a></b>
The <a href="local.8.html"><b>local</b>(8)</a> delivery agent disallows regular expression substitution
of $1 etc. in <b><a href="postconf.5.html#alias_maps">alias_maps</a></b>, because that would open a security hole.

<b>local</b> [generic Postfix daemon options]
-<b>DESCRIPTION</b>
+<b><a name="description">DESCRIPTION</a></b>
The <a href="local.8.html"><b>local</b>(8)</a> daemon processes delivery requests from the Postfix queue
manager to deliver mail to local recipients. Each delivery request
specifies a queue file, a sender address, a domain or host to deliver
again at a later time. Delivery status reports are sent to the
<a href="bounce.8.html"><b>bounce</b>(8)</a>, <a href="defer.8.html"><b>defer</b>(8)</a> or <a href="trace.8.html"><b>trace</b>(8)</a> daemon as appropriate.
-<b>CASE FOLDING</b>
+<b><a name="case_folding">CASE FOLDING</a></b>
All delivery decisions are made using the bare recipient name (i.e. the
address localpart), folded to lower case. See also under ADDRESS
EXTENSION below for a few exceptions.

attempts to avoid duplicate deliveries. The <b><a href="postconf.5.html#duplicate_filter_limit">duplicate_filter_limit</a></b> con-
figuration parameter limits the number of remembered recipients.
-<b>MAIL FORWARDING</b>
+<b><a name="mail_forwarding">MAIL FORWARDING</a></b>
For the sake of reliability, forwarded mail is re-submitted as a new
message, so that each recipient has a separate on-file delivery status
record.
address. If mail arrives for a recipient that is already listed in a
<b>Delivered-To:</b> header, the message is bounced.
-<b>MAILBOX DELIVERY</b>
+<b><a name="mailbox_delivery">MAILBOX DELIVERY</a></b>
The default per-user mailbox is a file in the UNIX mail spool directory
(<b>/var/mail/</b><i>user</i> or <b>/var/spool/mail/</b><i>user</i>); the location can be specified
with the <b><a href="postconf.5.html#mail_spool_directory">mail_spool_directory</a></b> configuration parameter. Specify a name
to Postfix, and prepends a <b>Return-Path:</b> header with the envelope sender
address.
-<b>EXTERNAL COMMAND DELIVERY</b>
+<b><a name="external_command_delivery">EXTERNAL COMMAND DELIVERY</a></b>
The <b><a href="postconf.5.html#allow_mail_to_commands">allow_mail_to_commands</a></b> configuration parameter restricts delivery

mand destinations in <b>:include:</b> files.

default is to use UNIX-style mailbox format. Specify a name ending in

<b>Return-Path:</b> header.

owned by the user <i>name</i>, or it is sent back as undeliverable.
-<b>DELIVERY RIGHTS</b>
+<b><a name="delivery_rights">DELIVERY RIGHTS</a></b>
Deliveries to external files and external commands are made with the
rights of the receiving user on whose behalf the delivery is made. In
the absence of a user context, the <a href="local.8.html"><b>local</b>(8)</a> daemon uses the owner

Corrupted message files are marked so that the queue manager can move
them to the <b>corrupt</b> queue afterwards.
Depending on the setting of the <b><a href="postconf.5.html#notify_classes">notify_classes</a></b> parameter, the postmas-

-<b>SECURITY</b>

The <a href="local.8.html"><b>local</b>(8)</a> delivery agent needs a dual personality 1) to access the
private Postfix queue and IPC mechanisms, 2) to impersonate the recipi-
ent and deliver to recipient-specified files or commands. It is there-
directly. Before Postfix version 2.2, the <a href="local.8.html"><b>local</b>(8)</a> delivery agent will
terminate with a fatal error.

-<b>SYNOPSIS</b>
+<b><a name="synopsis">SYNOPSIS</a></b>
<b>smtpd</b> [generic Postfix daemon options]
<b>sendmail -bs</b>
-<b>DESCRIPTION</b>
+<b><a name="description">DESCRIPTION</a></b>
The SMTP server accepts network connection requests and performs zero
or more SMTP transactions per connection. Each received message is
piped through the <a href="cleanup.8.html"><b>cleanup</b>(8)</a> daemon, and is placed into the <b>incoming</b>
<b>RCPT TO</b> commands. They are detailed below and in the <a href="postconf.5.html"><b>main.cf</b></a> configura-
tion file.
-<b>SECURITY</b>
+<b><a name="security">SECURITY</a></b>
The SMTP server is moderately security-sensitive. It talks to SMTP
clients and to DNS servers on the network. The SMTP server can be run
chrooted at fixed low privilege.
-<b>STANDARDS</b>
+<b><a name="standards">STANDARDS</a></b>
<a href="https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc821">RFC 821</a> (SMTP protocol)

Problems and transactions are logged to <b>syslogd</b>(8) or <a href="postlogd.8.html"><b>postlogd</b>(8)</a>.
Depending on the setting of the <b><a href="postconf.5.html#notify_classes">notify_classes</a></b> parameter, the postmas-
ter is notified of bounces, protocol problems, policy violations, and
of other trouble.
-<b>CONFIGURATION PARAMETERS</b>

Changes to <a href="postconf.5.html"><b>main.cf</b></a> are picked up automatically, as <a href="smtpd.8.html"><b>smtpd</b>(8)</a> processes
run for only a limited amount of time. Use the command "<b>postfix reload</b>"

but not "permit" actions).
-<b>KNOWN VERSUS UNKNOWN RECIPIENT CONTROLS</b>
+<b><a name="known_versus_unknown_recipient_controls">KNOWN VERSUS UNKNOWN RECIPIENT CONTROLS</a></b>
As of Postfix version 2.0, the SMTP server rejects mail for unknown

When a remote SMTP client makes errors, the Postfix SMTP server can

count for each excess recipient.
