     4 .SH SYNOPSIS
       
     5 in
       
     6 .BR .qmail :
       
     7 .B |bouncesaying
       
     8 .I error
       
     9 [
       
    10 .I program

    15 .SH DESCRIPTION
       
    16 .B bouncesaying
       
    17 feeds each new mail message to
       
    18 .I program
       
    19 with the given arguments.
       
    20 If
       
    21 .I program
       
    22 exits 0,
       
    23 .B bouncesaying
       
    24 prints
       
    25 .I error
       
    26 and bounces the message.
       
    27 
       
    28 If
       
    29 .I program
       
    30 exits 111,
       
    31 .B bouncesaying
       
    32 exits 111,
       
    33 so delivery will be retried later.
       
    34 
       
    35 If
       
    36 .I program
       
    37 exits anything else
       
    38 (or does not exist),
       
    39 .B bouncesaying
       
    40 exits 0,
       
    41 so the rest of
       
    42 .B .qmail
       
    43 will be processed as usual.
       
    44 
       
    45 Note that
       
    46 it is not safe for
       
    47 .I program
       
    48 to fork a child that
       
    49 reads the message in the background.
       
    50 
       
    51 If
       
    52 .I program
       
    53 is not supplied,
       
    54 .B bouncesaying
       
    55 always bounces the message:
       
    56 
       
    57 .EX
       
    58    |bouncesaying 'This address no longer accepts mail.'
       
    59 .EE
       
    60 
       
    61 .B WARNING:
       
    62 If you create a
       
    63 .B .qmail
       
    64 file to enable
       
    65 .BR bouncesaying ,
       
    66 make sure to also add a line specifying delivery to your normal mailbox.
