POSTSUPER(1)                                         POSTSUPER(1)


<b>NAME</b>
       postsuper - Postfix super intendent

<b>SYNOPSIS</b>
       <b>postsuper</b> [<b>-p</b>] [<b>-s</b>] [<b>-v</b>] [<i>directory</i> <i>...</i>]

<b>DESCRIPTION</b>
       The  <b>postsuper</b>  command does small maintenance jobs on the
       named Postfix queue directories (default: all).  Directory
       names  are  relative to the Postfix top-level queue direc-
       tory.

       By default, <b>postsuper</b> performs  the  operations  requested
       with the <b>-s</b> and <b>-p</b> command-line options.  <b>postsuper</b> always
       tries to remove objects that are neither files nor  direc-
       tories.   Use  of this command is restricted to the super-
       user.

       Options:

       <b>-s</b>     Structure check.  Move queue files that are in  the
              wrong place in the file system hierarchy and remove
              subdirectories that  are  no  longer  needed.  File
              rearrangements  are necessary after a change in the
              <b>hash</b><i>_</i><b>queue</b><i>_</i><b>names</b> and/or <b>hash</b><i>_</i><b>queue</b><i>_</i><b>depth</b> configura-
              tion  parameters.  It  is highly recommended to run
              this check once before Postfix startup.

       <b>-p</b>     Purge stale files (files that are left  over  after
              system or software crashes).

       <b>-v</b>     Enable verbose logging for debugging purposes. Mul-
              tiple <b>-v</b> options  make  the  software  increasingly
              verbose.

<b>DIAGNOSTICS</b>
       Problems  are reported to the standard error stream and to
       <b>syslogd</b>.

<b>CONFIGURATION</b> <b>PARAMETERS</b>
       See the Postfix <b>main.cf</b> file for syntax  details  and  for
       default values.

       <b>hash</b><i>_</i><b>queue</b><i>_</i><b>depth</b>
              Number of subdirectory levels for hashed queues.

       <b>hash</b><i>_</i><b>queue</b><i>_</i><b>names</b>
              The  names of queues that are organized into multi-
              ple levels of subdirectories.

<b>LICENSE</b>
       The Secure Mailer license must be  distributed  with  this
       software.
