    CLEANUP(8)                                                          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  man-
           ager of its arrival.

           The cleanup(8) daemon always performs the following trans-
           formations:

           o      Insert missing message  headers:  (Resent-)  From:,
                  To:, Message-Id:, and Date:.

           o      Transform  envelope  and  header  addresses  to the
                  standard user@fully-qualified-domain form  that  is
                  expected  by  other Postfix programs.  This task is
                  delegated to the trivial-rewrite(8) daemon.

           o      Eliminate duplicate envelope recipient addresses.

           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  con-
           tent  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. Alterna-
           tively, 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 3463 (Enhanced Status Codes)
           RFC 3464 (Delivery status notifications)

    DIAGNOSTICS
           Problems and transactions are logged to syslogd(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.
