NAME
       qmqpd - Postfix QMQP server

SYNOPSIS
       qmqpd [generic Postfix daemon options]

DESCRIPTION
       The  Postfix  QMQP server receives one message per connection.  Each message is piped through
       the cleanup(8) daemon, and is placed into the incoming queue as one single queue  file.   The
       program expects to be run from the master(8) process manager.

       The QMQP server implements one access policy: only explicitly authorized client hosts are al‐
       lowed to use the service.

SECURITY
       The QMQP server is moderately security-sensitive. It talks to QMQP clients and to DNS servers
       on the network. The QMQP server can be run chrooted at fixed low privilege.

DIAGNOSTICS
       Problems and transactions are logged to syslogd(8) or postlogd(8).

BUGS
       The  QMQP  protocol  provides only one server reply per message delivery. It is therefore not
       possible to reject individual recipients.

       The QMQP protocol requires the server to receive the entire message  before  replying.  If  a
       message  is  malformed,  or  if  any  netstring  component is longer than acceptable, Postfix
       replies immediately and closes the connection. It is left up to the client to handle the sit‐
       uation.

CONFIGURATION PARAMETERS
       Changes  to main.cf are picked up automatically, as qmqpd(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.

       smtputf8_autodetect_classes (sendmail, verify)

RESOURCE AND RATE CONTROLS
       line_length_limit (2048)
              Upon input, long lines are chopped up into pieces of at most this length; upon  deliv‐
              ery, long lines are reconstructed.

       hopcount_limit (50)
              The  maximal  number of Received:  message headers that is allowed in the primary mes‐

              tern in the debug_peer_list parameter.

       debug_peer_list (empty)
              Optional  list  of  remote  client or server hostname or network address patterns that
              cause the  verbose  logging  level  to  increase  by  the  amount  specified  in  $de‐
              bug_peer_level.

       soft_bounce (no)

              mote QMQP client.

MISCELLANEOUS CONTROLS
       config_directory (see 'postconf -d' output)
              The default location of the Postfix main.cf and master.cf configuration files.

       daemon_timeout (18000s)

              minated by a built-in watchdog timer.

       ipc_timeout (3600s)

       process_id (read-only)
              The process ID of a Postfix command or daemon process.
