    CLEANUP(8)                                                          CLEANUP(8)

    NAME
           cleanup - canonicalize and enqueue Postfix message

    SYNOPSIS
           cleanup [generic Postfix daemon options]

    DESCRIPTION
           The  cleanup(8)  daemon  processes  inbound  mail,  inserts it into the
           incoming mail queue, and informs the queue manager of its arrival.

           The cleanup(8) daemon always performs the following transformations:

           o      Insert missing  message  headers:  (Resent-)  From:,  To:,  Mes-
                  sage-Id:, and Date:.

           o      Transform   envelope   and  header  addresses  to  the  standard
                  user@fully-qualified-domain form that is expected by other Post-
                  fix  programs.  This task is delegated to the trivial-rewrite(8)
                  daemon.

           o      Eliminate duplicate envelope recipient addresses.

           o      Remove  message  headers:   Bcc,   Content-Length,   Resent-Bcc,
                  Return-Path.

           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(8)  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(8) 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)
           RFC 2822 (Internet Message Format)
           RFC 3463 (Enhanced Status Codes)
           RFC 3464 (Delivery status notifications)
           RFC 5322 (Internet Message Format)

    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.

    COMPATIBILITY CONTROLS
           undisclosed_recipients_header (see 'postconf -d' output)

                  2.2,  is  turned off by default with Postfix version 2.1, and is
