Hi, I have a Postfix 2.7 running on our LAN to relay mails from servers and such stuff to our hosted email service. We have a photocopier that can also scan to PDF and email the resulting file. Unfortunately our email-provider does not like mails above the size of 20mb, so large scans can't get through (yes, the machine can split it into multiple mails, but it does so in the most horrible way which simply does not work correctly). In order to make it possible for my users to scan and actually get the result regardless of filesize I have decided to just have my local postfix pipe the emails from the photocopier through a script I've made that will extract the attached PDF and put it into the users homedir on our fileserver. I am however having some problems getting the postfix config to work. I decided to just run an extra smtpd on a different port and have all mails delivered to that port piped to my script. I therefore added these lines to master.cf:
192.168.0.42:8025 inet n - n - - smtpd -o relay_transport=scan -o relayhost= -o relay_domains=dsl.dk scan unix - n n - - pipe flags=X user=root argv=/usr/local/bin/recieve_scan.py What I was hoping this would do would be to accept mails for i.e. a...@dsl.dk and pipe them through recieve_scan.py. Unfortunately it just relays them to our email-provider instead. Can anybody help me figure out why it does not work? Perhaps I should take a completely different approach? (Yes, I have completely stopped and started Postfix after adding the above, and smtpd listens to port 8025) -- Anders Bruun Olsen It-ansvarlig Det Danske Sprog- og Litteraturselskab (Society for Danish Language and Literature)
