BOUNCE(8)                                                            BOUNCE(8)

<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 sta-
       tus 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 program 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-delivery notifica-
       tion 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.

<b>DIAGNOSTICS</b>
       Problems and transactions are logged to <b>syslogd</b>(8).

<b>CONFIGURATION PARAMETERS</b>
       Changes to <a href="postconf.5.html"><b>main.cf</b></a> are picked up automatically, as <a href="bounce.8.html"><b>bounce</b>(8)</a>  processes
