First you should find out about your Postfix version to make sure it supports custom bounce messages:
postconf -d | grep mail_versionserver2:~# postconf -d | grep mail_version
mail_version = 3.4.13
milter_macro_v = $mail_name $mail_version
server2:~#
If your Postfix is 2.3 or newer, then you're good to go.
2 maximal_queue_lifetime 및 delay_warning_time 설정
From http://www.postfix.org/postconf.5.html:
maximal_queue_lifetime: The maximal time a message is queued before it is sent back as undeliverable.
delay_warning_time: The time after which the sender receives the message headers of mail that is still queued.
The postconf -n command shows the settings that are currently configured in /etc/postfix/main.cf, whereas the postconf -d command shows the default settings that are valid unless something else is set in /etc/postfix/main.cf.
To find out about the current value of maximal_queue_lifetime, you can run
postconf -d | grep maximal_queue_lifetime
postconf -n | grep maximal_queue_lifetimeIf postconf -n doesn't display anything, this means the value from postconf -d is currently being used:
server2:~# postconf -d | grep maximal_queue_lifetime
maximal_queue_lifetime = 5d
server2:~# postconf -n | grep maximal_queue_lifetime
server2:~#
The same goes for delay_warning_time:
postconf -d | grep delay_warning_time
postconf -n | grep delay_warning_timeserver2:~# postconf -d | grep delay_warning_time
delay_warning_time = 0h
server2:~# postconf -n | grep delay_warning_time
server2:~#
If you want to modify these settings, you can use the postconf -e command. It will write the settings to /etc/postfix/main.cf, e.g. like this:
postconf -e 'maximal_queue_lifetime = 1d'
postconf -e 'delay_warning_time = 0h'Restart Postfix afterwards:
service postfix restartThe reason that we care about these two settings is that their values can be used in the custom bounce messages.
3 사용자 지정 반송 메시지 만들기
From http://www.postfix.org/bounce.5.html :
템플릿 파일은 실패한 메일, 지연된 메일, 성공적인 배달 또는 주소 확인을 위한 템플릿을 지정할 수 있습니다. 이러한 템플릿의 이름은 각각 failure_template, delay_template, success_template 및 verify_template입니다. 바운스 템플릿 파일에서 네 가지 템플릿을 모두 지정할 수는 있지만 반드시 그런 것은 아닙니다.

# The delay template is used when mail is delayed. Note a neat trick:

# by appending the _hours suffix to the parameter name; it displays
# the maximal_queue_lifetime value as days by appending the _days
# suffix.
#
# Other suffixes are: _seconds, _minutes, _weeks. There are no other
# main.cf parameters that have this special behavior.

# You need to adjust these suffixes (and the surrounding text) if
# you have very different settings for these time parameters.

You can customize the messages to your liking. In the messages, you can use all main.cf variables (e.g. $myhostname). If you take a look at the delay_template, you'll see that I use the additional variables $delay_warning_time_hours and $maximal_queue_lifetime_days. You could as well use $delay_warning_time_seconds, $delay_warning_time_minutes, $delay_warning_time_days, $delay_warning_time_weekes resp. $maximal_queue_lifetime_seconds, $maximal_queue_lifetime_minutes, $maximal_queue_lifetime_hours, $maximal_queue_lifetime_weeks, but keep in mind what http://www.postfix.org/bounce.5.html explains about these variables:
delay_warning_time_suffix: Expands into the value of the delay_warning_time parameter, expressed in the time unit specified by a suffix, which is one of seconds, minutes, hours, days, or weeks.
maximal_queue_lifetime_suffix: Expands into the value of the maximal_queue_lifetime parameter, expressed in the time unit specified by suffix. See above under delay_warning_time for possible suffix values.
So if you use the variable $delay_warning_time_minutes instead of $delay_warning_time_hours in your template, you should follow it by the word "minutes" instead of "hours".
Next, we configure Postfix to use the custom templates:
postconf -e 'bounce_template_file = /etc/postfix/bounce.cf'postconf -b /etc/postfix/bounce.cfserver2:~# postconf -b /etc/postfix/bounce.cf
expanded_failure_text = <<EOF

service postfix restart
