# A filter can returns different values. Each return value is given a name. The
# configuration associates an action to run to a return value name.
#
+# A hook action has the format: (counter:id:incr:)?(filter_name|postfix:ACTION)
+#
+# The action can contains the reference to a counter to update. This counters are "message"-wide
+# counters that stay valid until the end of the filtering of the message. This counters are useful
+# to trig different actions depending on the number of failures encountered during the processing
+# of a message. There are 64 counters (0..63), accessible from all the filters. By specifying
+# counter:id:incr as a prefix of the hook action, you tell postlicyd to add (incr) to counter
+# (id) when this hook is reached. The "counter" filter type allow you to run actions depending
+# on the value of a counter.
+#
# The action can be either a postfix access(5) value or a filter name. Postfix access
-# parameters must be prefixed by 'postfix:'.
+# parameters must be prefixed by 'postfix:'. The text argument given to a postfix reply
+# may contain format strings to be replaced by the parameters of the query. This arguments
+# have the following format: ${fieldname}
#
# eg:
# on_match = postfix:REJECT Blacklisted;
+# on_fail = postfix:450 Greylisted, see http://www.example.org/${sender_domain}.html
+# on_error = counter:0:1:postfix:DUNNO
+# on_match = counter:63:10:whitelist
#
# Filter:
# Current defined filter types are:
# declare a file to load. If lock is given, the klist is locked into the
# RAM. The weight is a number giving the weight of this blaclist file in the
# score of the IP
+# - rbldns: (no)?lock:weight:filename
+# this is an alias for file.
+# - dns: weight:hostname
+# use a rbl via DNS resolution with the given weight. If a DNS lookup error occurs
+# the IP is considered as beeing "not found".
# - soft_threshold: score (default: 1)
# minimum score to match the soft_match return value
# - hard_threshold: score (default: 1)
# Return value:
# The score of a query is the sum of the weight of the blacklist it matched.
# - If the IP can not be parsed, returns error
+# - If no rbl was available (no file and all dns down), returns error.
# - If the score is strictly greater >= than hard_threshold, returns hard_match
# - If the score is strictly greater >= than soft_threshold, returns soft_match
# - Else, returns fail
# * names beginning with '*' are sorted as 'domains' and are matched as suffix
# * names starting with an alphanumirical character are sorted as 'hostnames' and are
# process via exact matching.
+# - dns: weight:hostname
+# use a rhbl via DNS resolution with the given weight. If a DNS lookup error occurs
+# the hostname is considered as beeing "not found". This can only be used with "hostnames"
+# typed fields.
# - soft_threshold: score (default: 1)
# minimum score to match the soft_match return value
# - hard_threshold: score (default: 1)
# No space is allowed in this parameter.
# Return value:
# The score of a query is the sum of the weight of the list it matched.
+# - If no rhbl was available (no file and all dns down), returns error.
# - If the score is strictly greater >= than hard_threshold, returns hard_match
# - If the score is strictly greater >= than soft_threshold, returns soft_match
# - Else, returns fail
# - prefix: name (default: "")
# prefix to the name of the greylist database
# - lookup_by_host: boolean (default: false)
-# perform lookup per host instead of domain.
+# perform lookup per host. The default behaviour is to remove the last number of the IP
+# to match a domain. This behaviour is disabled if a part of the IP is contained in the
+# hostname (look like a dialup ip from a provider). With this flag on, the "domain"
+# matching is always disable.
+# - no_sender: boolean (default: false)
+# do not use the sender address. Default behaviour is to greylist using the tuple
+# (client_address, sender, recipient). With this flag on, the sender is not used.
+# - no_recipient: boolean (default: false)
+# same as no_sender but with recipient.
# - delay: number (default: 300)
# number of seconds the client must wait before retrial.
# - retry_window: (default: 2 * 24 * 3600)
# - if the client is greylisted, returns greylist
# - if a error occured (not currently possible), returns error
# State:
-# this filter is a recipient filter and works in RCPT state only
-# (smtpd_recipient_restrictions).
+# this filter is a recipient filter and works in RCPT state onl if no_recipient
+# is not specified (smtpd_recipient_restrictions). If no_sender is not given, this
+# requires a sender name, and so must be called after MAIL TO.
