I am trying to implement nodup postfix daemon on my linux (Fedora) box
with no success up2now...
Here shortly described what I've done:
0) I've found some documentation on this page (or on similar pages...):
http://osdir.com/ml/mail.postfix.devel/2007-05/msg00010.html
1) On another internet page I've read nodup is available starting from
postfix 2.5. My postfix package version is 2.5.5. It should be OK...
2) After reading the synopsis "nodup [generic Postfix daemon options]"
I've added to my master.cf the following line:
nodup unix - - n - - nodup -v
In my understanding it should be OK...
3) In main.cf file I've added the following lines:
duplicate_filter_limit = 1000
duplicate_filter_style = pragmatic
4) Documentation reports all mailing list should be "owned". All my
local mailing lists are owned by root adding a proper line into my
/etc/aliases file:
mylist1 myuser1,myuser2
owner-mylist1 root
In my understanding it should be OK...
5 - Question) I've tried to check availability of a nodup executable on
my linux box but with no success!!! The only reference to a nodup file
in my system is /var/spool/postfix/private/nodup after trying to start
it; it was not available before. Is this right??? I was expecting a
nodup executable where the other postfix executables are located into
/usr/libexec/postfix. I've checked also in the latest postfix package
included into latest version but a nodup executable in not available
either. Is nodup daemon really available on my system? What/where should
I check for it?
6 - Question) I was expecting some output either in /var/log/maillog or
in /var/log/messages marked as postfix/nodup but nothing up2now. Is this
a confirmation that nodup is not available ???
Where am I wrong ?
Is a more detailed documentation available somewhere ?
Could someone point me in the right direction ?
Tnks! Regards
Gianni
