--- name: "policy-test" section: "8" platform: "linux" package: "postgrey" version: "1.37-2.1" release: "Debian 13 (Trixie)" platforms: ["linux"] url: "https://new.carta.tech/policy-test" --- # policy-test(8) Postfix Policy Daemon Testing Tool ## NAME policy-test - Postfix Policy Daemon Testing Tool ## SYNOPSIS **policy-test** \[*options*...\] unix:/file/path **policy-test** \[*options*...\] inet:hostname:port ``` -h, --help display this help and exit --version output version information and exit -v, --verbose increase verbosity level ``` ## DESCRIPTION policy-test is a script that converts Postfix log entries on the standard input into requests to the Postfix policy daemon given as the first argument. It can be used for: - Testing the performance of a policy daemon - Pre-seeding a Greylist policy daemon with data from the logs Note that this program is still in its very early stages of development and does only support a small subset of the normal attributes used in the Postfix policy delegation protocol. It basically supports the bare minimum to make it work with Postgrey. Also note that a non-standard attribute is being generated: policy\_test\_time contains the Unix timestamp of when the client connected. ## COPYRIGHT Copyright (c) 2007 by Open Systems AG.
