Administrator Guide
Valid mail delivery to external commands
This parameter restricts mail delivery to only those commands specified here. The default is to
disallow delivery to commands specified in :include: files, and allow execution of commands in alias
and forward files. This option correlates to the allow_mail_to_command directive.
Valid mail delivery to external files
This option restricts mail delivery to external files. The default is to disallow delivery to files specified
in :include: but to allow delivery to files specified in aliases and forward files. This option correlates
to the allow_mail_to_files directive.
Default rights of the local delivery agent
This option configures the privileges that the delivery agent will have for delivery to a file or
a command. This option should never be a privileged user or the Postfix owner. This option
corresponds to the default_privs directive and defaults to nobody.
Pathname of user mailbox file
When delivering mail locally, Postfix will drop mail in the directory configured here or in its default
mail spool directory. If you wish to use the maildir format for mail storage, this value can be
appended with a trailing slash. For example, to store mail in the user’s home directory in the Maildir
subdirectory, the value would be Maildir/. This option correlates to the home_mailbox directive and
usually defaults to some location under /var/spool/mail or /var/spool/postfix.
Destination address for unknown recipients
If a message is received for a recipient that does not exist, the message is normally bounced.
However, it is possible to instead have the message delivered to an alternate address. This option
corresponds to the luser_relay directive. Variable expansions matching those discussed for the
Search list for forward are also valid for this directive.
Spool directory
This option specifies the directory where UNIX-style mailboxes are stored. Defaults vary depending
on OS variant and version, but a common choice is /var/spool/mail. This option correlates to the
mail_spool_directory option.
External command to use instead of mailbox delivery
This option defines a command to use for delivery instead of delivering straight to the user’s
mailbox. The command will be run as the recipient of the message with appropriate HOME, SHELL
and LOGNAME environment variables set. This option is commonly used to set up system-wide
usage of procmail. If you use a command to deliver mail to all users, you must configure an alias
for root, as the command will be executed with the permissions of the $default_user. This option
correlates to the mailbox_command directive and is disabled by default.
Optional actual transport to use
This option configures the message transport to use for all local users, whether they are in the UNIX
