POSTFIX-ADD-POLICY(8)                  System Manager's Manual                 POSTFIX-ADD-POLICY(8)



NAME
       postfix-add-policy - add policy service to Postfix master.cf

SYNOPSIS
       postfix-add-policy [policy name...] [username...] [argv...]

DESCRIPTION
       The  postfix-add-policy(8) command adds an smtp policy server named policy name running using
       username and called as argv to /etc/postfix/master.cf to facilitate integration of SMTP  pol‐
       icy  servers such as postgrey or postfix-policyd-spf-perl.  The configuration is based on the
       Postfix SMTPD_POLICY_README.  Administrators should verify it is appropriate  for  their  re‐
       quirements.

       The  original file is copied prior to modification and left in /etc/postfix to make it possi‐
       ble to revert changes easily.

       Available in the Debian package for Postfix version 2.5.3 and later.


DIAGNOSTICS
       If the given policy name  already appears in the master.cf, a  message  will  be  printed  to
       standard out and master.cf will not be modified.


ENVIRONMENT
       MAIL_CONFIG
              Directory with Postfix configuration files.

              The  postfix-add-policy(8)  command  should use this, but it currently doesn't.  It is
              hard coded to /etc/postfix.  This should be changed.

CONFIGURATION PARAMETERS
       None

FILES
       /etc/postfix/master.cf
