Hi:

I am hoping someone can offer help in determining this information about the specifics of how sendmail submits mail.

I have three different services configured in master.cf to accept mail: 1) the regular smtpd service on port 25, 2) a submission service for authenticated clients, and 3) a reinjection service (localhost: 10026) to accept mail after an after-queue content filter (which is specified as an - o override on the port 25 service in master.cf, not in main.cf).

I am about to add a different after-queue content filter to the submission service (also via an -o override in master.cf), and this content filter re-injects mail via the sendmail command.

There is no content_filter specified in main.cf.

In this configuration, when mail is submitted via the sendmail command, will the content filter specified on the port 25 service apply? or will postfix only pay attention to the settings in main.cf for the purposes of transferring that mail?

I suppose the more general question is which set of configuration options is mail submitted via the sendmail command subject to?

(yes, I read the sendmail(1) documentation and did not find this information. The architecture documentation indicates only that it is subject to pretty much anything that local submission is subject to, but it's not clear what that is).

Any help or pointers are very much appreciated!

Thanks,

--Jeff
