I had a wierd request from one of our guys. We are running on RedHat EL5. He asked that all mail originating from 3 servers he owns be sent to files instead of being sent out.

postdrop
POSTDROP(1) General Commands Manual POSTDROP(1)NAME
postdrop - Postfix mail posting utility
SYNOPSIS
postdrop [-rv] [-c config_dir]
DESCRIPTION
The postdrop command creates a file in the maildrop directory and copies its standard input to the file.
Options:
-c The main.cf configuration file is in the named directory instead of the default configuration directory. See also the MAIL_CONFIG
environment setting below.
-r Use a Postfix-internal protocol for reading the message from standard input, and for reporting status information on standard out-
put. This is currently the only supported method.
-v Enable verbose logging for debugging purposes. Multiple -v options make the software increasingly verbose.
SECURITY
The command is designed to run with set-group ID privileges, so that it can write to the maildrop queue directory and so that it can con-
nect to Postfix daemon processes.
DIAGNOSTICS
Fatal errors: malformed input, I/O error, out of memory. Problems are logged to syslogd(8) and to the standard error stream. When the
input is incomplete, or when the process receives a HUP, INT, QUIT or TERM signal, the queue file is deleted.
ENVIRONMENT
MAIL_CONFIG
Directory with the main.cf file. In order to avoid exploitation of set-group ID privileges, it is not possible to specify arbitrary
directory names.
A non-standard directory is allowed only if the name is listed in the standard main.cf file, in the alternate_config_directories
configuration parameter value.
Only the super-user is allowed to specify arbitrary directory names.
FILES
/var/spool/postfix, mail queue
/etc/postfix, configuration files
CONFIGURATION PARAMETERS
See the Postfix main.cf file for syntax details and for default values. Use the postfix reload command after a configuration change.
import_environment
List of names of environment parameters that can be imported from non-Postfix processes.
queue_directory
Top-level directory of the Postfix queue. This is also the root directory of Postfix daemons that run chrooted.
