DESCRIPTION¶

The function filter_api_loop() is used to enter the filter loop, waiting for callback functions to be called.

The function filter_api_accept() can be called to accept the current message with the given id from within a callback function.

The functions filter_api_reject() and filter_api_reject_code() can be called to reject the current message with the given id from within a callback function. Both expect the status to be specified which should be one of the following values.

FILTER_FAIL

The filter failed and the message should not be accpeted.

FILTER_CLOSE

The filter is done and the message should not be accepted.

Morover, with the function filter_api_reject_code() a code and line can be specified, to reject the current message with a custom SMTP reply code and error message.

The function filter_api_writeln() is intended to write (received) SMTP DATA command lines (back) from within a callback function. This might be used by a filter to add or modifiy DATA lines.

CALLBACK FUNCTIONS¶

The function filter_api_on_helo() is called on SMTP HELO command. The callback can be used to accept or reject messages based on the given HELO string.

The function filter_api_on_mail() is called on SMTP MAIL FROM command. The callback can be used to accept or reject messages based on the given MAIL FROM address.

The function filter_api_on_rcpt() is called on SMTP RCPT TO command. The callback can be used to accept or reject messages based on the given RCPT TO address.

The function filter_api_on_data() is called on SMTP DATA command. The callback might be used to setup data structures for filtering the upcoming DATA lines.

The function filter_api_on_dataline() is called on each SMTP DATA line. The callback can be used to accept or reject messaged based on the (header or body) content of the current message.

The function filter_api_on_eom() is called on the end (of DATA command) of the current message. The callback might be used to cleanup data structures and finalize the decision of accepting or rejecting the message.

The function filter_api_on_reset() is called on SMTP RSET command. The callback might be used to reset the current filter state.

The function filter_api_on_disconnect() is called on closed SMTP connections. The callback might be used to cleanup earlier setup data structures.

The function filter_api_on_commit() is called on commit of the current message.

The function filter_api_on_rollback() is called on rollback of the SMTP session. The callback might be used to cleanup earlier setup data structures.

HELPER FUNCTIONS¶

The function filter_api_set_chroot() can be called using rootpath to set the chroot path of the filter.

The function filter_api_no_chroot() can be called to disable chroot for the filter.

The function filter_api_set_udata() can be called for the current message with the given id to set a user data pointer data from within a callback function.

The function filter_api_get_udata() can be called to get the user data pointer for the current message with the given id from within a callback function.

The function filter_api_sockaddr_to_text() can be called to convert a socket address sa to a string.

The function filter_api_mailaddr_to_text() can be called to convert a mail address maddr to a string.

RETURN VALUES¶

The function filter_api_get_udata() returns a pointer to the user data set for the current message.

The functions filter_api_sockaddr_to_text() and filter_api_mailaddr_to_text() return a pointer to a static buffer containing the string representation. The buffer remains valid until the next call to the conversion functions. In case of error, the function filter_api_sockaddr_to_text() returns the static string “(unknown)” and the function filter_api_mailaddr_to_text() returns NULL.
