postfix-nochroot(8) System Manager's Manual postfix-nochroot(8)NAME
postfix-nochroot - change /etc/postfix/master.cf to not use chroot
SYNOPSIS
postfix-nochroot
DESCRIPTION
Renames /etc/postfix/master.cf to /etc/postfix/master.cf.bak and creates a new /etc/postfix/master.cf file with every service configured to
not use chroot. Every modified line is commented. It also restarts Postfix (to apply the change) and rmoves the unused chroot directories
/var/spool/postfix/{etc,lib,usr} .
Using a chroot environment makes upgrades more difficult and gets in the way when running SE Linux (without actually providing any security
benefit in a SE Linux system).

POSTFIX-ADD-POLICY(8) System Manager's Manual POSTFIX-ADD-POLICY(8)NAME
postfix-add-policy - add policy service to Postfix master.cf
SYNOPSIS
postfix-add-policy [policy name...] [username...] [argv...]
DESCRIPTION
The postfix-add-policy(8) command adds an smtp policy server named policy name running using username and called as argv to etc/post-
fix/master.cf to facilitate integration of SMTP policy servers such as postgrey or postfix-policyd-spf-perl. The configuration is based on
the Postfix SMTPD_POLICY_README. Adminstrators should verify it is appropriate for their requirements.
The original file is copied prior to modification and left in /etc/postfix to make it possible to revert changes easily.
Available in the Debian package for Postfix version 2.5.3 and later.
DIAGNOSTICS
If the given policy name already appears in the master.cf, a message will be printed to standard out and master.cf will not be modified.
ENVIRONMENT
MAIL_CONFIG
Directory with Postfix configuration files.
The postfix-add-policy(8) command should use this, but it currently doesn't. It is hard coded to /etc/postfix. This should be
changed.
CONFIGURATION PARAMETERS
None
FILES
/etc/postfix/master.cf
