I'm trying to intercept all hard bounced back e-mail and send it to a
script/program for processing
internally. I wish to prevent all notification of bounces to the person that
sent the e-mail.
I had an idea, and I'm trying to make it work. Can I just change the master.cf
and change bounce to go to a
pipe? Like this:
bounce unix - - n - 0 pipe
flags=DORhu user=root argv=/etc/postfix/dump_bounce.sh
I keep getting this error though:
postfix/pipe[9736]: fatal: service bounce requires privileged operation
I was trying different users besides root, but even root does not work.
