Re: Simple filter via pipe
It seems Noel was right: you need to learn your basics before moving
forward
with Postfix. See 'Explanations of Man Sections' here:

There was some error when user, other than root, has been filtering mail.
Error was visible only when I manually executed:
# cat mail_in_file | ./mail_filter.php r...@example1.com j...@example2.com
Syntax error: ( unexpected
I simply changed php code related to execution of shell functions.(to work
for user other than root)
Finally, I've completely solved a problem.
Error:
Syntax error: ( unexpected,
wasn't in postfix error log: /var/log/maillog
And by passing macro ${sasl_method} in addition to ${sender} ${recipient}
in /usr/local/etc/postfix/master.cf
I am able to selectivly apply filtering ONLY to SASL authed users and avoid
all others
Guys! You are constantly totally confusing me, literally not saying
anything useful to me!
Just giving me too ambiguous(many possible interpretations) DIRECTIONS.
Thankx anyway ;)

Since you don't seem to have understood my answers, probably a book on using Unix or Linux would help you most at this point. Actually I am on Freebsd 7.2 So UNIX book type..., I have already. But not went through it all... If you have further questions, please see: http://www.postfix.org/DEBUG_README.html#mail -- Noel Jones I asked too much... So instead of 2 issues, I should ask 0.5 question instead ;) Maybe tactic of isolation of problem and focusing only on it and ignoring rest in context, at least while that one ain't solved.

Re: Building milter in PHP

I did that in PHP. Now, I am at a part, where my PHP milter has to communicate with postfix. Aim is to get string from postfix, evaluate it and send it back to postfix. So I started to read as a first action. Errors I did received were: can't read SMFIC_OPTNEG reply packet header: Operation timed out The Sendmail MILTER protocol is completely different from SMTP. PHP already comes with a SAPI (server API) that supports this protocol, and you should probably build your application that way. See, for example: http://www.google.com/search?q=php+milter Wietse It did, but not anymore. It is now depreciated.(php-milter) I use PHP 5.3 and already have working filter. To finalise it, I just need a list and description of milter commands. Those milter commands works for any type of coding language Up to now I've found out these but without explanation or examples connect helo envfrom envrcpt header eoh body eom abort close
Re: Special needs(filter - SASL)
- Original Message - From: Brian Evans - Postfix List grkni...@scent-team.com To: Postfix users postfix-users@postfix.org Date: Wed, 19 Aug 2009 14:41:51 -0400 Subject: Re: Special needs(filter - SASL) none none wrote: I would like email to be filtered ONLY from user that relays(SASL authed) mail to the outside(not localhost) mailbox. That is, if that same user is sending mail from local machine(no relaying) then filter doesn't kicks in. I've looked at postfix man pages and documentation and it is too much hassle about creating other instances of smtp ot smtpd etc... and pcre has limited caps for me. I am very skilled when it comes to PHP, so would like to create PHP script that would suck that mail in and spit it out for delivery by postfix. But Right now I would be happy even with in /usr/local/etc/postfix/main.cf: header_checks = pcre:/usr/local/etc/postfix/strip_relay_header BUT, that header_checks rule should kick in ONLY for remote SASL authed user when target mailbox is NOT locally hosted (goes out to the internet) header_checks are applied globally for an instance. There is no way around that fact. What *is* possible is to use a content_filter or milter instead. See some ideas here: http://www.postfix.org/FILTER_README.html http://www.postfix.org/MILTER_README.html I think I will go for before-queue Milter support SMTP-only - which means It will be applied to incoming mail from the internet(Both SASL authed and those from outside senders with target as/for local mailboxes) I am a little bit puzzled with qmqpd. When it kicks in? I read only explicitly authorized client hosts are allowed to use the service And is in network category, so were hopping that, it would be my ticket to apply filter only to SASL authed users and no one else. /etc/postfix/main.cf: # Milters for mail that arrives via the smtpd(8) server. # See below for socket address syntax. smtpd_milters = unix:/path/to/php_daemon/its.sock This is how I link to my php daemon. Now tell me, how does string(which is mail[it's header body]) is PASSED to and RETRIEVED back to postfix? I mean, is it true, that string(which is mail[it's header body]) goes to its.sock AND after filtering, is returned to postfix, again, via its.sock
