NAME

qmail-dcc - test message for bulkiness

SYNOPSIS

Can be invoked by qmail-qfilter or qmail-local.

qmail-dcc [-rhot] [-m message] [-s /path/to/socket ]

DESCRIPTION

If the environment variable QMAILDCC is set and equal to "1", qmail-dcc will test the message on stdin for bulkiness. stdin must be a seekable file.

qmail-dcc requires a dccifd instance to be running.

-h: Adds a X-DCC header to the message. The header is composed of the text returned by dccifd. An existing header is removed.
-r: Reject the message if dccifd indicates it is a bulk message.
-t: Tell dccifd to update the checksum counts based on this message.
-o: Only emit the header that would be added.
-m message: If rejected, the string message is used in the SMTP reject response. Default is the standard qmail reject response, "554 mail server permanently rejected message (#5.3.0)". If message is prefixed with env:, the rest of the string is treated as the name of an environment variable that contains the reject response.
-s /path/to/socket: The socket used to communicate with dccifd. If not supplied, the default value is /etc/dcc/dccifd.

USAGE

With qmail-qfilter:

#!/bin/bash

export DCCREJ='Message rejected as bulk (#5.3.0)'
/path/to/qmail-qfilter \
        /path/to/qmail-dcc -r -m env:DCCREJ -s /etc/dcc/dccifd

As a delivery instruction for qmail-local:


|/path/to/qmail-dcc -h | forward $LOCAL@server-exchange.com
