.SH DESCRIPTION
|

|
|
The \fBpostlog\fR(1) command implements a Postfix-compatible logging
|
|
interface for use in, for example, shell scripts.
|
|
|
|
By default, \fBpostlog\fR(1) logs the \fItext\fR given on the command
|
|
line as one record. If no \fItext\fR is specified on the command
|
|
line, \fBpostlog\fR(1) reads from standard input and logs each input
|
|
line as one record.
|
|
|
|
Logging is sent to \fBsyslogd\fR(8); when the standard error stream
|
|
is connected to a terminal, logging is sent there as well.
|
|
|
|
The following options are implemented:
|
|
.IP "\fB-c \fIconfig_dir\fR"
|
|
Read the \fBmain.cf\fR configuration file in the named directory
|
|
instead of the default configuration directory.
|
|
.IP \fB-i\fR
|
|
Include the process ID in the logging tag.
|
|
.IP "\fB-p \fIpriority\fR"
|
|
Specifies the logging severity: \fBinfo\fR (default), \fBwarn\fR,
|
|
\fBerror\fR, \fBfatal\fR, or \fBpanic\fR.
|
|
.IP "\fB-t \fItag\fR"
|
|
Specifies the logging tag, that is, the identifying name that
|
|
appears at the beginning of each logging record. A default tag
|
|
is used when none is specified.
|
|
.IP \fB-v\fR
|
|
Enable verbose logging for debugging purposes. Multiple \fB-v\fR
|
|
options make the software increasingly verbose.

The following \fBmain.cf\fR parameters are especially relevant to
|
|
this program.
|
|
|
|
The text below provides only a parameter summary. See
|
|
\fBpostconf\fR(5) for more details including examples.
|
|
.IP "\fBconfig_directory (see 'postconf -d' output)\fR"
|
|
The default location of the Postfix main.cf and master.cf
|
|
configuration files.
|
|
.IP "\fBsyslog_facility (mail)\fR"
|
|
The syslog facility of Postfix logging.
|
|
.IP "\fBsyslog_name (see 'postconf -d' output)\fR"
|
|
The mail system name that is prepended to the process name in syslog
|
|
records, so that "smtpd" becomes, for example, "postfix/smtpd".
