qconfirm-return(1)qconfirm-return(1)NAMEqconfirm-return - handles bounces from qconfirm-check(1)SYNOPSIS
in .qmail:
|qconfirm-return [-n limit] [dir]
DESCRIPTIONqconfirm-return expects QSBMF (qmail-send bounce message format) bounce
messages and processes them. It tries to extract the recipient address
that caused the bounce from the failure paragraph and the unique key
that qconfirm-check(8) has created for delivery confirmation for mes‐
sages from this address from the original message (the included qcon‐
firm-check(8)'s confirmation request message).
If qconfirm-return fails to do so, or the key in the original message
does not match the key qconfirm-check(8) has created for this address,
or the envelope sender is not empty, it prints a warning and exits 0.
Otherwise qconfirm-return notices that this address bounces. If qcon‐
firm-return sees that this address already has bounced before, it tells
qconfirm-check(8) to silently drop the message from this sender address
the next time qmail tries to deliver it (exception: see the -n option).
If qconfirm-return was able to successfully parse and notice the bounce
message, it exits 99, and so tells qmail-local(8) to ignore all further
delivery instructions.
qconfirm-return exits 111 on error.
OPTIONS-n limit
Limit. limit must be an integer; if this option is given, qcon‐
firm-return notices addresses that bounce limit more times
before telling qconfirm-check(8) to silently drop the message
from the sender address. Default is 0.
dir qconfirm directory. qconfirm-return uses the qconfirm directory
dir for checking pending addresses and noticing bouncing
addresses. Default is .qconfirm.
