<b>NAME</b>
bounce - Postfix delivery status reports
<b>SYNOPSIS</b>
<b>bounce</b> [generic Postfix daemon options]
<b>DESCRIPTION</b>
The <a href="bounce.8.html"><b>bounce</b>(8)</a> daemon maintains per-message log files with
delivery status information. Each log file is named after
the queue file that it corresponds to, and is kept in a
queue subdirectory named after the service name in the
<a href="master.5.html"><b>master.cf</b></a> file (either <b>bounce</b>, <b>defer</b> or <b>trace</b>). This pro-
gram expects to be run from the <a href="master.8.html"><b>master</b>(8)</a> process manager.
The <a href="bounce.8.html"><b>bounce</b>(8)</a> daemon processes two types of service
requests:
<b>o</b> Append a recipient (non-)delivery status record to
a per-message log file.
<b>o</b> Enqueue a delivery status notification message,
with a copy of a per-message log file and of the
corresponding message. When the delivery status
notification message is enqueued successfully, the
per-message log file is deleted.
The software does a best notification effort. A non-deliv-
ery notification is sent even when the log file or the
original message cannot be read.
Optionally, a bounce (defer, trace) client can request
that the per-message log file be deleted when the
requested operation fails. This is used by clients that
cannot retry transactions by themselves, and that depend
on retry logic in their own client.
