CLEANUP(8)                  System Manager's Manual                 CLEANUP(8)

NAME
       cleanup - canonicalize and enqueue Postfix message
SYNOPSIS
       cleanup [generic Postfix daemon options]
DESCRIPTION
       The  cleanup(8)  daemon  processes  inbound  mail,  inserts it into the
       incoming mail queue, and informs the queue manager of its arrival.
       The cleanup(8) daemon always performs the following transformations:
       o      Insert missing  message  headers:  (Resent-)  From:,  To:,  Mes-
              sage-Id:, and Date:.
       o      Transform   envelope   and  header  addresses  to  the  standard
              user@fully-qualified-domain form that is expected by other Post-
              fix  programs.  This task is delegated to the trivial-rewrite(8)
              daemon.
       o      Eliminate duplicate envelope recipient addresses.
       o      Remove  message  headers:   Bcc,   Content-Length,   Resent-Bcc,
              Return-Path.
       The following address transformations are optional:
       o      Optionally,  rewrite all envelope and header addresses according
              to the mappings specified in the canonical(5) lookup tables.
       o      Optionally, masquerade envelope  sender  addresses  and  message
              header  addresses  (i.e.  strip host or domain information below
              all domains listed in the masquerade_domains  parameter,  except
              for  user  names  listed in masquerade_exceptions).  By default,
              address masquerading does not affect envelope recipients.
       o      Optionally, expand envelope recipients according to  information
              found in the virtual(5) lookup tables.
       The  cleanup(8)  daemon  performs  sanity checks on the content of each
       message. When it finds a problem, by default it  returns  a  diagnostic
       status  to  the client, and leaves it up to the client to deal with the
       problem. Alternatively, the client can request the cleanup(8) daemon to
       bounce the message back to the sender in case of trouble.
STANDARDS
       RFC 822 (ARPA Internet Text Messages)
       RFC 2045 (MIME: Format of Internet Message Bodies)
       RFC 2046 (MIME: Media Types)
       RFC 2822 (Internet Message Format)
       RFC 3463 (Enhanced Status Codes)
       RFC 3464 (Delivery status notifications)

DIAGNOSTICS
       Problems and transactions are logged to syslogd(8) or postlogd(8).
BUGS
       Table-driven  rewriting  rules make it hard to express if then else and
       other logical relationships.
CONFIGURATION PARAMETERS
       Changes to main.cf are picked up automatically, as cleanup(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.
COMPATIBILITY CONTROLS
       undisclosed_recipients_header (see 'postconf -d' output)
              Message header that the Postfix cleanup(8) server inserts when a

              sender address (this feature is  removed  with  Postfix  version
              2.2,  is  turned off by default with Postfix version 2.1, and is
              always turned on with older Postfix versions).

              after  applying  header_checks(5)  and  before  invoking  Milter
              applications.

              manual page.

              independent from how a remote mail server handles  such  charac-
              ters.
BEFORE QUEUE MILTER CONTROLS
       As of version 2.3, Postfix supports the Sendmail version 8 Milter (mail
       filter) protocol. When mail is not received via  the  smtpd(8)  server,
