      1 .TH bouncesaying 1
      2 .SH NAME
      3 bouncesaying \- perhaps bounce each incoming message
      4 .SH SYNOPSIS
      5 in
      6 .BR .qmail :
      7 .B |bouncesaying
      8 .I error
      9 [
     10 .I program
     11 [
     12 .I arg ...
     13 ]
     14 ]
     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.
