qconfirm-inject(1)     DragonFly General Commands Manual    qconfirm-inject(1)


NAME

       qconfirm-inject - set Message-ID and VERP and send a mail message


SYNOPSIS

       qconfirm-inject [-v] [-nN] recip ...


DESCRIPTION

       qconfirm-inject runs qmail-inject(8) to preprocess and send a message
       it reads from standard input.  qconfirm-inject tells qmail-inject(8) to
       set a Message-ID and variable envelope return path (VERP), according to
       the configuration in the qconfirm directory, so that delivery
       notifications are handled through qconfirm-notice(1), and followups can
       be detected by qconfirm-check-mid(1).

       qconfirm-inject also keeps track of Message-IDs of mail messages it
       injects to enable qconfirm-notice(1) to reliably validate delivery
       notifications and delivery confirmation request messages.


OPTIONS

       -v     verbose.  Print verbose messages to standard error.

       -n -N  These options are passed to qmail-inject(8).


CONFIGURATION

       qconfirm-inject reads its configuration from files in the subdirectory
       conf/ of the qconfirm directory (normally ``~/.qconfirm/conf/'').  Only
       the first line of a configuration file is considered.

       QNOTICE_USER
              The configuration file QNOTICE_USER sets the local part (without
              extension) of the mail address that handles delivery
              notifications.  If QNOTICE_USER is not set, qconfirm-inject
              checks the environment variables USER and LOGNAME, in this
              order.  If none of these is set, qconfirm-inject refuses to run.
              QNOTICE_USER must be set to the user's login name.

       QNOTICE_HOST
              The configuration file QNOTICE_HOST sets the host part of the
              mail address that handles delivery notifications.  Normally
              QNOTICE_HOST is the host part of the mail address qconfirm is
              configured for.

       QNOTICE_EXT
              The configuration file QNOTICE_EXT overrides the default
              extension to be used to receive delivery notifications
              (``qnotice-'').

       QCONFIRM_MID
              The configuration file QCONFIRM_MID sets the host part of the
              Message-ID to be used when sending mail messages.  Only the
              first mid of the space-separated list is considered.  If
              QCONFIRM_MID is not set, qconfirm-inject refuses to run.

       QCONFIRM_MID_TIMEOUT
              The configuration file QCONFIRM_MID_TIMEOUT sets the timeout for
              expiration of Message-IDs in seconds.  Default is 3628800.

       QNOTICE_QMAIL_INJECT
              The configuration file QNOTICE_QMAIL_INJECT overrides the
              default path to the qmail-inject program (``qmail-inject'').


ENVIRONMENT

       QCONFIRM_DIR
              The environment variable QCONFIRM_DIR overrides the default
              location of the user's qconfirm directory (``~/.qconfirm/'').


FILES

        ~/.qconfirm/.qnotice-key
        ~/.qconfirm/conf/
        ~/.qconfirm/notice/
