mailbox_transport = procmail
What I use:
mailbox_command = /usr/local/bin/procmail -t -a "$EXTENSION"
same as I do (now), but the goal is to use "mailbox_transport".
Then the master.cf :
procmail unix - n n - - pipe
flags=R user=mail argv=/usr/bin/procmail -t -m USER=${user}
EXT=${extension} /etc/procmailrc
So every mail in your scenario has the owner "delivery", not the owner of the
mailbox-owner himself !
That´s wrong.
procmail unix - n n - - pipe
-o flags=R user=delivery argv=/usr/local/bin/procmail -t -m USER=$
{delivery} EXTENSION=${extension} /usr/local/etc/procmailrc.common
NB: It's pipe -o, not pipe
you are right ! Thx.
BUT : all mails are owned by the "user=..." i.e. "mail" from the entry
of the master.cf (postfix).
Well, as I understood it the user=delivery means that the delivery
agent in postfix 'owns' the message, and the delivery agent 'does the
right thing'.
Hmm ... what do you mean? The option user=delivery (your example) or user=mail
(my example) means,
that this is the user who own´s the following piping (and the delivered mails).
The name "delivery" is a user-name, not any special name from postfix (I never
heart about this name in
the postifx-guidelines or docs).
I'm not sure why yours is set to 'mail'
It is an entry "user" in the "/etc/passwd". You could add your own user in this
file and use it in the
user=...-statement from postfix (and I use "mail")..
"..after processing aliases and .forward files" are the keywords !
Why? Where does the .forward of alias come into play?
From Postfix ! If defined, Postfix use alias-tables to change recipient-names
(and more). I used this table to define
external users with their mailbox-names as internal(local)-users. So everyone
could use the external adress. If he is connecte to the
internal LAN, then postfix deliver this email directly & automaticaly to the
alias-user-id in the internal net (its easy to handle with adress-
books) not using external SMTP´s or whatever.
