NAME­makemap − create database maps for smtpd

SYNOPSIS
­makemap [−U] [−d dbtype] [−o dbfile] [−t type] file

DESCRIPTIONMaps provide a generic interface for associating textual key to a value. Such associations may be accessed through a plaintext file, database, or DNS. The format of these file types is described below. ­makemap itself creates the database maps used by keyed map lookups specified in smtpd.conf(5). ­makemap reads input from file and writes data to a file whose name is made by adding a ``.db'' suffix to file. The current line can be extended over multiple lines using a backslash (Sq \.) Comments can be put anywhere in the file using a hash mark (Sq #,) and extend to the end of the current line. Care should be taken when commenting out multi-line text: the comment is effective until the end of the entire block. In all cases, ­makemap reads lines consisting of words separated by whitespace. The first word of a line is the database key; the remainder represents the mapped value. The database key and value may optionally be separated by the colon character. The options are as follows: −d dbtype  Specify the format of the database. Available formats are hash and btree. The default value is hash. −o dbfile  Write the generated database to dbfile. −t type  Specify the format of the resulting map file. The default map format is suitable for storing simple, unstructured, key-to-value string associations. However, if the mapped value has special meaning, as in the case of the virtual domains file, a suitable type must be provided. The available output types are: aliases  The mapped value is a comma-separated list of mail destinations. This format can be used for building user aliases and user mappings for virtual domain files. set  There is no mapped value – a map of this type will only allow for the lookup of keys. This format can be used for building primary domain maps. −U  Instead of generating a database map from text input, dump the contents of a database map as text with the key and value separated with a tab.

PRIMARY DOMAINSPrimary domains can be kept in tables. To create a primary domain table, add each primary domain on a single line by itself. In addition to adding an entry to the primary domain map, one must add a filter rule that accepts mail for the domain map, for example: table domains db:/etc/opensmtpd/domains.db action "local" mbox match for domain <domains> action "local"

VIRTUAL DOMAINS Virtual domains may also be kept in tables. To create a virtual domain table, add each virtual domain on a single line by itself. Virtual domains expect a mapping of virtual users to real users in order to determine if a recipient is accepted or not. The mapping format is an extension to aliases(5), which allows the use of ``user@domain.tld'' to accept user only on the specified domain, ``user'' to accept the user for any of the virtual domains, ``@domain.tld'' to provide a catch-all for the specified domain and ``@'' to provide a global catch-all for all domains. smtpd(8) will perform the lookups in that specific order. To create single virtual address, add ``user@example.com user'' to the users map. To handle all mail destined to any user at example.com, add ``@example.com user'' to the virtual map. In addition to adding an entry to the virtual map, one must add a filter rule that accepts mail for virtual domains, for example: table vdomains db:/etc/opensmtpd/vdomains.db table vusers db:/etc/opensmtpd/users.db action "local" mbox virtual <vusers> match for domain <vdomains> action "local" match for domain "example.org" action "local"

FILES /etc/opensmtpd/aliases  List of user mail aliases. /etc/opensmtpd/secrets  List of remote host credentials.

EXIT STATUSThe makemap utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs. makemap
