Hello,

the advanced content filter documentation in
http://www.postfix.org/FILTER_README.html describes how an email is
passed to a content filter listening on a TCP port on localhost, but
how is the email passed if the content filter is listening on a unix
socket?

I have tried the following in main.cf:

content_filter = proxsmtp:unix:external/proxsmtpd.sock

And in master.cf:

proxsmtp   unix  -       -       n       -      16       smtp
  -o smtp_send_xforward_command=yes
  -o disable_mime_output_conversion=yes
  -o smtp_generic_maps=

But that fails, with the following error in the log:

jeeves postfix/smtp[37436]: fatal: unknown service:
external/proxsmtpd.sock/tcp

The other way round, passing from the filter to postfix only using UNIX
sockets, is working.

Regards
  Christoph
