    CLEANUP(8)                                             CLEANUP(8)

    NAME
           cleanup - canonicalize and enqueue Postfix message

    SYNOPSIS
           cleanup [generic Postfix daemon options]

    DESCRIPTION
           The cleanup daemon processes inbound mail, inserts it into
           the incoming mail queue, and informs the queue manager  of
           its arrival.

           The cleanup daemon always performs the following transfor-
           mations:

           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 daemon performs sanity checks on  the  content
           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. Alternatively,
           the client can request the cleanup 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)

    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.

           undisclosed_recipients_header   (To:   undisclosed-recipi-
           ents:;)
                  Message header that the Postfix  cleanup(8)  server
                  inserts  when a message contains no To: or Cc: mes-
                  sage header.

                  header, instead of the envelope sender address.

    BUILT-IN CONTENT FILTERING CONTROLS
           Postfix built-in content filtering  is  meant  to  stop  a
           flood  of  worms  or  viruses. It is not a general content
           filter.

                  Optional list of user names that are not  subjected
                  to  address  masquerading,  even when their address
