qconfirm - manage addresses/ids in a qconfirm directory
qconfirm
[-iC] [-d dir] [-c cdb] list [pending|ok|return|bad]
qconfirm [-iCD] [-d dir] [-c
cdb] arg addresses
qconfirm either lists pending, known, bouncing,
or bad addresses in a qconfirm directory, or alters their states to tell
qconfirm-check(1) what to do with mails from this addresses.
arg is either
check, accept, drop, bounce, pending, remove, or bad. addresses consists
of one or more mail addresses or qconfirm ids.
- list
- lists all ids in
the pending/, ok/, return/, or bad/ directory as mail addresses, one per
line. Each address is preceded with a timestamp indicating when the last
confirmation request was sent (pending/), when the last message from this
address was accepted (ok/), when the most recent bounce was received (return/),
or when the id was created (bad/). If neither the pending, ok, return, or
bad option is given, qconfirm lists the pending directory and appends to
each address its current state.
- check
- check for each mail address in addresses
its state in the qconfirm directory. The state can be either known, unknown,
pending, or bad.
- accept
- alter the state for each mail address in addresses
to known. If the state of the mail address is pending, this address is confirmed
manually. The next time qmail tries to deliver a message from this address,
the message is accepted and the state is changed to known.
- drop
- check for
each mail address in addresses if the address currently is pending. If yes,
tell qconfirm-check(1) to silently drop the message the next time qmail
tries to deliver a message from this address.
- bounce
- check for each mail
address in addresses if the address currently is pending. If yes, tell qconfirm-check(1)
to bounce the message the next time qmail tries to deliver a message from
this address.
- pending
- switch the state of each mail address back to pending.
- remove
- check for each mail address in addresses if the address is known.
If yes, change its state to unknown. Note: If qconfirm updates the constant
database cdb, it creates cdb.tmp as temporary file. If cdb.tmp exists, it
will be destroyed.
- bad
- check for each mail address in addresses if the address
is unknown or pending. If yes, tell qconfirm-check(1) to permanently bounce
messages from this address.
- -i
- id. Force all addresses to be interpreted
as qconfirm ids, not mail addresses, and output qconfirm ids instead of
mail addresses.
- -C
- cdb. Additionally to the qconfirm directory, check the
default constant database for known ids (``~/.qconfirm/ok.cdb'').
- -d dir
- Override
the default qconfirm directory (``~/.qconfirm'') and the environment variable
QCONFIRM_DIR with dir.
- -c cdb
- Override the default name of the constant database
with known ids (``ok.cdb'') and the environment variable QCONFIRM_OKCDB with
cdb. If cdb doesn't start with a slash, it is searched in the user's qconfirm
directory. If cdb is empty, the default name is used. Implies -C.
- -D
- Don't use
extended envelope sender domain matching when checking ids.
- QCONFIRM_DIR
- The environment variable QCONFIRM_DIR overrides the default location of
the user's qconfirm directory (``~/.qconfirm'').
- QCONFIRM_OKCDB
- The environment
variable QCONFIRM_OKCDB overrides the default name of the user's constant
database for known ids (``ok.cdb''). If QCONFIRM_OKCDB doesn't start with a slash,
it is searched in the user's qconfirm directory. If QCONFIRM_OKCDB is empty,
the default name is used (``ok.cdb'').
