QMGR(8) QMGR(8)
<b>NAME</b>
qmgr - Postfix queue manager
<b>SYNOPSIS</b>
<b>qmgr</b> [generic Postfix daemon options]
<b>DESCRIPTION</b>
The <a href="qmgr.8.html"><b>qmgr</b>(8)</a> daemon awaits the arrival of incoming mail and arranges for
its delivery via Postfix delivery processes. The actual mail routing
strategy is delegated to the <a href="trivial-rewrite.8.html"><b>trivial-rewrite</b>(8)</a> daemon. This program
expects to be run from the <a href="master.8.html"><b>master</b>(8)</a> process manager.
Mail addressed to the local <b>double-bounce</b> address is logged and dis-
carded. This stops potential loops caused by undeliverable bounce
notifications.
<b>MAIL QUEUES</b>
The <a href="qmgr.8.html"><b>qmgr</b>(8)</a> daemon maintains the following queues:
<b>incoming</b>
Inbound mail from the network, or mail picked up by the local
<a href="pickup.8.html"><b>pickup</b>(8)</a> daemon from the <b>maildrop</b> directory.
<b>active</b> Messages that the queue manager has opened for delivery. Only a
limited number of messages is allowed to enter the <b>active</b> queue
(leaky bucket strategy, for a fixed delivery rate).
<b>deferred</b>
Mail that could not be delivered upon the first attempt. The
queue manager implements exponential backoff by doubling the
time between delivery attempts.
<b>corrupt</b>
Unreadable or damaged queue files are moved here for inspection.
<b>hold</b> Messages that are kept "on hold" are kept here until someone
sets them free.
<b>DELIVERY STATUS REPORTS</b>
The <a href="qmgr.8.html"><b>qmgr</b>(8)</a> daemon keeps an eye on per-message delivery status reports
in the following directories. Each status report file has the same name
as the corresponding message file:
<b>bounce</b> Per-recipient status information about why mail is bounced.
These files are maintained by the <a href="bounce.8.html"><b>bounce</b>(8)</a> daemon.
<b>defer</b> Per-recipient status information about why mail is delayed.
These files are maintained by the <a href="defer.8.html"><b>defer</b>(8)</a> daemon.
<b>trace</b> Per-recipient status information as requested with the Postfix
"<b>sendmail -v</b>" or "<b>sendmail -bv</b>" command. These files are main-
tained by the <a href="trace.8.html"><b>trace</b>(8)</a> daemon.
The <a href="qmgr.8.html"><b>qmgr</b>(8)</a> daemon is responsible for asking the <a href="bounce.8.html"><b>bounce</b>(8)</a>, <a href="defer.8.html"><b>defer</b>(8)</a> or
<a href="trace.8.html"><b>trace</b>(8)</a> daemons to send delivery reports.
<b>STRATEGIES</b>
The queue manager implements a variety of strategies for either opening
queue files (input) or for message delivery (output).
<b>leaky bucket</b>
This strategy limits the number of messages in the <b>active</b> queue
and prevents the queue manager from running out of memory under
heavy load.
<b>fairness</b>
When the <b>active</b> queue has room, the queue manager takes one mes-
sage from the <a href="QSHAPE_README.html#incoming_queue"><b>incoming</b> queue</a> and one from the <b>deferred</b> queue.
This prevents a large mail backlog from blocking the delivery of
new mail.
<b>slow start</b>
This strategy eliminates "thundering herd" problems by slowly
adjusting the number of parallel deliveries to the same destina-
tion.
<b>round robin</b>
The queue manager sorts delivery requests by destination.
Round-robin selection prevents one destination from dominating
deliveries to other destinations.
<b>exponential backoff</b>
Mail that cannot be delivered upon the first attempt is
deferred. The time interval between delivery attempts is dou-
bled after each attempt.
<b>destination status cache</b>
The queue manager avoids unnecessary delivery attempts by main-
taining a short-term, in-memory list of unreachable destina-
tions.
<b>preemptive message scheduling</b>
The queue manager attempts to minimize the average per-recipient
delay while still preserving the correct per-message delays,
using a sophisticated preemptive message scheduling.
<b>TRIGGERS</b>
On an idle system, the queue manager waits for the arrival of trigger
events, or it waits for a timer to go off. A trigger is a one-byte mes-
sage. Depending on the message received, the queue manager performs
one of the following actions (the message is followed by the symbolic
constant used internally by the software):
<b>D (QMGR_REQ_SCAN_DEFERRED)</b>
Start a <a href="QSHAPE_README.html#deferred_queue">deferred queue</a> scan. If a deferred queue scan is
already in progress, that scan will be restarted as soon as it
finishes.
<b>I (QMGR_REQ_SCAN_INCOMING)</b>
Start an <a href="QSHAPE_README.html#incoming_queue">incoming queue</a> scan. If an incoming queue scan is
already in progress, that scan will be restarted as soon as it
finishes.
<b>A (QMGR_REQ_SCAN_ALL)</b>
Ignore <a href="QSHAPE_README.html#deferred_queue">deferred queue</a> file time stamps. The request affects the
next <a href="QSHAPE_README.html#deferred_queue">deferred queue</a> scan.
<b>F (QMGR_REQ_FLUSH_DEAD)</b>
Purge all information about dead transports and destinations.
<b>W (TRIGGER_REQ_WAKEUP)</b>
Wakeup call, This is used by the master server to instantiate
servers that should not go away forever. The action is to start
an <a href="QSHAPE_README.html#incoming_queue">incoming queue</a> scan.
The <a href="qmgr.8.html"><b>qmgr</b>(8)</a> daemon reads an entire buffer worth of triggers. Multiple
identical trigger requests are collapsed into one, and trigger requests
are sorted so that <b>A</b> and <b>F</b> precede <b>D</b> and <b>I</b>. Thus, in order to force a
<a href="QSHAPE_README.html#deferred_queue">deferred queue</a> run, one would request <b>A F D</b>; in order to notify the
queue manager of the arrival of new mail one would request <b>I</b>.
<b>STANDARDS</b>
<a href="https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3463">RFC 3463</a> (Enhanced status codes)
<a href="https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3464">RFC 3464</a> (Delivery status notifications)
<b>SECURITY</b>
The <a href="qmgr.8.html"><b>qmgr</b>(8)</a> daemon is not security sensitive. It reads single-character
messages from untrusted local users, and thus may be susceptible to
denial of service attacks. The <a href="qmgr.8.html"><b>qmgr</b>(8)</a> daemon does not talk to the out-
side world, and it can be run at fixed low privilege in a chrooted
environment.
<b>DIAGNOSTICS</b>
Problems and transactions are logged to <b>syslogd</b>(8) or <a href="postlogd.8.html"><b>postlogd</b>(8)</a>.
Corrupted message files are saved to the <b>corrupt</b> queue for further
inspection.
Depending on the setting of the <b><a href="postconf.5.html#notify_classes">notify_classes</a></b> parameter, the postmas-
ter is notified of bounces and of other trouble.
<b>BUGS</b>
A single queue manager process has to compete for disk access with mul-
tiple front-end processes such as <a href="cleanup.8.html"><b>cleanup</b>(8)</a>. A sudden burst of inbound
mail can negatively impact outbound delivery rates.
<b>CONFIGURATION PARAMETERS</b>
Changes to <a href="postconf.5.html"><b>main.cf</b></a> are not picked up automatically as <a href="qmgr.8.html"><b>qmgr</b>(8)</a> is a per-
sistent process. Use the "<b>postfix reload</b>" command after a configuration
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.
In the text below, <i>transport</i> is the first field in a <a href="master.5.html"><b>master.cf</b></a> entry.
