-.TH s/qmail: qmail-send 8
-.SH NAME
-qmail-send \- deliver mail messages from the queue
-.SH SYNOPSIS
-.B qmail-send
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-.B qmail-send
-handles messages placed into the outgoing queue by
-.BR qmail-queue .
-It uses
-.B qmail-lspawn
-to deliver messages to local recipients and
-.B qmail-rspawn
-to deliver messages to remote recipients.
-If a message is temporarily undeliverable to one or more addresses,
-.B qmail-send
-leaves it in the queue and tries the addresses again later.
-
-.B qmail-send
-prints a readable record of its activities to descriptor 0.
-It writes commands to
-.BR qmail-lspawn ,
-.BR qmail-rspawn ,
-and
-.B qmail-clean
-on descriptors 1, 3, and 5,
-and reads responses from descriptors 2, 4, and 6.
-Communication with
-.B qmail-todo
-is based on decriptors 7 and 8.
-.B qmail-send
-is responsible for avoiding deadlock.
-
-If
-.B qmail-send
-receives a TERM signal,
-it will exit cleanly, after waiting
-(possibly more than a minute)
-for current delivery attempts to finish.
-
-If
-.B qmail-send
-receives an ALRM signal,
-it will reschedule every message in the queue for immediate delivery.
-
-.SH "CONTROL FILES"
-.B WARNING:
-.B qmail-send
-reads its control files only when it starts.
-If you change the control files,
-you must stop and restart
-.BR qmail-send .
-Exception:
-If
-.B qmail-send
-receives a HUP signal,
-it will reread
-.IR locals ,
-.IR virtualdomains ,
-as well as
-.IR concurrencylocal ,
-.IR concurrencyremote ,
-and in addition
-.IR queuelifetime .
-.TP 5
-.I bouncefrom
-Bounce username.
-Default:
-.BR MAILER-DAEMON .
-.TP 5
-.I bouncehost
-Bounce host.
-Default:
-.IR me ,
-if that is supplied;
-otherwise the literal name
-.BR bouncehost ,
-which is probably not what you want.
-If a message is permanently undeliverable,
-.B qmail-send
-sends a
-.B single-bounce
-notice back to the message's envelope sender.
-The notice is
-.B From: \fIbouncefrom\fB@\fIbouncehost\fR,
-although its envelope sender is empty.
-.TP 5
-.I bouncemaxbytes
-Maximum size (in bytes) of bounce messages.
-Bounce messages exceeding this limit will be truncated.
-Default is 0; which means no limit.
-.TP 5
-.I concurrencylocal
-Maximum number of simultaneous local delivery attempts.
-Default: 10.
-If 0, local deliveries will be put on hold.
-.I concurrencylocal
-is limited at compile time to
-SPAWN.
-.TP 5
-.I concurrencyremote
-Maximum number of simultaneous remote delivery attempts.
-Default: 20.
-If 0, remote deliveries will be put on hold.
-.I concurrencyremote
-is limited at compile time to
-SPAWN.
-.TP 5
-.I doublebouncehost
-Double-bounce host.
-Default:
-.IR me ,
-if that is supplied;
-otherwise the literal name
-.BR doublebouncehost ,
-which is probably not what you want.
-.TP 5
-.I doublebounceto
-User to receive double-bounces.
-Default:
-.BR postmaster .
-If a single-bounce notice is permanently undeliverable,
-.B qmail-send
-sends a
-.B double-bounce
-notice to
-.IR doublebounceto\fB@\fIdoublebouncehost .
-(If that bounces,
-.B qmail-send
-gives up.)
-As a special case, if the first line of
-.IR doublebounceto
-contains a '@' or an empty line
-.B qmail-send
-will discard all double-bounces.
-.TP 5
-.I envnoathost
-Presumed domain name for addresses without @ signs.
-Default:
-.IR me ,
-if that is supplied;
-otherwise the literal name
-.BR envnoathost ,
-which is probably not what you want.
-If
-.B qmail-send
-sees an envelope recipient address without an @ sign,
-it appends
-.B @\fIenvnoathost\fR.
-.TP 5
-.I locals
-List of domain names that the current host
-receives mail for,
-one per line.
-Default:
-.IR me ,
-if that is supplied;
-otherwise
-.B qmail-send
-refuses to run.
-An address
-.I user@domain
-is considered local if
-.I domain
-is listed in
-.IR locals .
-.TP 5
-.I percenthack
-List of domain names where the percent hack is applied.
-If
-.I domain
-is listed in
-.IR percenthack ,
-any address of the form
-.I user%fqdn@domain
-is rewritten as
-.IR user@fqdn .
-.I user
-may contain %,
-so the percent hack may be applied repeatedly.
-.B qmail-send
-handles
-.I percenthack
-before
-.IR locals .
-.TP 5
-.I queuelifetime
-Number of seconds
-a message can stay in the queue.
-Default: 604800 (one week).
-After this time expires,
-.B qmail-send
-will try the message once more,
-but it will treat any temporary delivery failures as
-permanent failures.
-.TP 5
-.I virtualdomains
-List of virtual users or domains, one per line.
-A virtual user has the form
-.IR user\fB@\fIdomain\fB:\fIprepend ,
-without any extra spaces.
-When
-.B qmail-send
-sees the recipient address
-.IR user\fB@\fIdomain ,
-it converts it to
-.I prepend\fB-\fIuser\fB@\fIdomain
-and treats it as local.
-
-A virtual domain has the form
-.IR domain\fB:\fIprepend .
-It applies to any recipient address at
-.IR domain .
-For example, if
-
-.EX
- nowhere.mil:joeBREAKfoo
-.EE
-
-is in
-.IR virtualdomains ,
-and a message arrives for
-.BR info@nowhere.mil ,
-.B qmail-send
-will rewrite the recipient address as
-.B joeBREAKfoo-info@nowhere.mil
-and deliver the message locally.
-
-.I virtualdomains
-may contain wildcards:
-
-.EX
- .fax:uucpBREAKfax
- :aliasBREAKcatchall
- .nowhere.mil:joeBREAKfoo-host
-.EE
-
-.I virtualdomains
-may also contain exceptions:
-an empty
-.I prepend
-means that
-.I domain
-is not a virtual domain.
-
-.B qmail-send
-handles
-.I virtualdomains
-after
-.IR locals :
-if a domain is listed in
-.IR locals ,
-.I virtualdomains
-does not apply.
