TRIVIAL-REWRITE(8) TRIVIAL-REWRITE(8)
<b>NAME</b>
trivial-rewrite - Postfix address rewriting and resolving
daemon
<b>SYNOPSIS</b>
<b>trivial-rewrite</b> [generic Postfix daemon options]
<b>DESCRIPTION</b>
The <a href="trivial-rewrite.8.html"><b>trivial-rewrite</b>(8)</a> daemon processes three types of
client service requests:
<b>rewrite</b> <i>context address</i>
Rewrite an address to standard form, according to
the address rewriting context:
<b>local</b> Append the domain names specified with <b>$<a href="postconf.5.html#myorigin">myo</a>-</b>
<b><a href="postconf.5.html#myorigin">rigin</a></b> or <b>$<a href="postconf.5.html#mydomain">mydomain</a></b> to incomplete addresses;
do <b><a href="postconf.5.html#swap_bangpath">swap_bangpath</a></b> and <b><a href="postconf.5.html#allow_percent_hack">allow_percent_hack</a></b> pro-
cessing as described below, and strip source
routed addresses (<i>@site,@site:user@domain</i>)
to <i>user@domain</i> form.
<b>remote</b> Append the domain name specified with
<b>$<a href="postconf.5.html#remote_header_rewrite_domain">remote_header_rewrite_domain</a></b> to incomplete
addresses. Otherwise the result is identical
to that of the <b>local</b> address rewriting con-
text. This prevents Postfix from appending
the <a href="ADDRESS_CLASS_README.html#local_domain_class">local domain</a> to spam from poorly written
remote clients.
<b>resolve</b> <i>sender address</i>
Resolve the address to a (<i>transport</i>, <i>nexthop</i>,
<i>recipient</i>, <i>flags</i>) quadruple. The meaning of the
results is as follows:
<i>transport</i>
The delivery agent to use. This is the first
field of an entry in the <a href="master.5.html"><b>master.cf</b></a> file.
<i>nexthop</i>
The host to send to and optional delivery
method information.
<i>recipient</i>
The envelope recipient address that is
passed on to <i>nexthop</i>.
<i>flags</i> The address class, whether the address
requires relaying, whether the address has
problems, and whether the request failed.
<b>verify</b> <i>sender address</i>
Resolve the address for address verification pur-
poses.
<b>SERVER PROCESS MANAGEMENT</b>
The <a href="trivial-rewrite.8.html"><b>trivial-rewrite</b>(8)</a> servers run under control by the
Postfix master server. Each server can handle multiple
simultaneous connections. When all servers are busy while
a client connects, the master creates a new server
process, provided that the trivial-rewrite server process
limit is not exceeded. Each trivial-rewrite server termi-
nates after serving at least <b>$<a href="postconf.5.html#max_use">max_use</a></b> clients of after
<b>$<a href="postconf.5.html#max_idle">max_idle</a></b> seconds of idle time.
<b>STANDARDS</b>
None. The command does not interact with the outside
world.
<b>SECURITY</b>
The <a href="trivial-rewrite.8.html"><b>trivial-rewrite</b>(8)</a> daemon is not security sensitive.
By default, this daemon does not talk to remote or local
users. It can run at a fixed low privilege in a chrooted
environment.
<b>DIAGNOSTICS</b>
Problems and transactions are logged to <b>syslogd</b>(8).
<b>CONFIGURATION PARAMETERS</b>
On busy mail systems a long time may pass before a <a href="postconf.5.html"><b>main.cf</b></a>
change affecting <a href="trivial-rewrite.8.html"><b>trivial-rewrite</b>(8)</a> is picked up. Use the
command "<b>postfix reload</b>" to speed up a change.
The text below provides only a parameter summary. See
<a href="postconf.5.html"><b>postconf</b>(5)</a> for more details including examples.
<b>COMPATIBILITY CONTROLS</b>
<b><a href="postconf.5.html#resolve_dequoted_address">resolve_dequoted_address</a> (yes)</b>
Resolve a recipient address safely instead of cor-
rectly, by looking inside quotes.
<b><a href="postconf.5.html#resolve_null_domain">resolve_null_domain</a> (no)</b>
Resolve an address that ends in the "@" null domain
as if the local hostname were specified, instead of
rejecting the address as invalid.
<b><a href="postconf.5.html#resolve_numeric_domain">resolve_numeric_domain</a> (no)</b>
Resolve "user@ipaddress" as "user@[ipaddress]",
instead of rejecting the address as invalid.
Available with Postfix version 2.5 and later:
<b><a href="postconf.5.html#allow_min_user">allow_min_user</a> (no)</b>
Allow a sender or recipient address to have `-' as
the first character.
<b>ADDRESS REWRITING CONTROLS</b>
<b><a href="postconf.5.html#myorigin">myorigin</a> ($<a href="postconf.5.html#myhostname">myhostname</a>)</b>
The domain name that locally-posted mail appears to
come from, and that locally posted mail is deliv-
ered to.
<b><a href="postconf.5.html#allow_percent_hack">allow_percent_hack</a> (yes)</b>
Enable the rewriting of the form "user%domain" to
"user@domain".
<b><a href="postconf.5.html#append_at_myorigin">append_at_myorigin</a> (yes)</b>
With locally submitted mail, append the string
"@$<a href="postconf.5.html#myorigin">myorigin</a>" to mail addresses without domain
information.
<b><a href="postconf.5.html#append_dot_mydomain">append_dot_mydomain</a> (yes)</b>
With locally submitted mail, append the string
".$<a href="postconf.5.html#mydomain">mydomain</a>" to addresses that have no ".domain"
information.
<b><a href="postconf.5.html#recipient_delimiter">recipient_delimiter</a> (empty)</b>
The separator between user names and address exten-
sions (user+foo).
<b><a href="postconf.5.html#swap_bangpath">swap_bangpath</a> (yes)</b>

Don't rewrite message headers from remote clients
at all when this parameter is empty; otherwise, re-
write message headers and append the specified
domain name to incomplete addresses.

same route as regular mail. To override specific aspects
of message routing for address verification probes, spec-
ify one or more of the following:
