QMQP-SOURCE(1)              General Commands Manual             QMQP-SOURCE(1)

NAME
       qmqp-source - parallelized QMQP test generator

SYNOPSIS
       qmqp-source [options] [inet:]host[:port]

       qmqp-source [options] unix:pathname

DESCRIPTION
       qmqp-source  connects  to the named host and TCP port (default 628) and
       sends one or more messages to it, either sequentially or  in  parallel.
       The  program  speaks  the  QMQP  protocol.   Connections can be made to
       UNIX-domain and IPv4 or IPv6 servers.  IPv4 and IPv6 are the default.

       Note: this is an unsupported test program. No attempt is made to  main‐
       tain compatibility between successive versions.

       Arguments:

       -4     Connect  to the server with IPv4. This option has no effect when
              Postfix is built without IPv6 support.

       -6     Connect to the server with IPv6. This option  is  not  available
              when Postfix is built without IPv6 support.

       -c     Display a running counter that is incremented each time a deliv‐
              ery completes.

       -C count
              When  a host sends RESET instead of SYN|ACK, try count times be‐
              fore giving up. The default count is 1. Specify a  larger  count
              in  order  to work around a problem with TCP/IP stacks that send
              RESET when the listen queue is full.

       -f from
              Use the specified sender address (default: <foo@myhostname>).

       -l length
              Send length bytes as message payload. The  length  includes  the
              message headers.

       -m message_count
              Send the specified number of messages (default: 1).

       -M myhostname
              Use  the  specified  hostname or [address] in the default sender
              and recipient addresses, instead of the machine hostname.

       -r recipient_count
              Send the specified number of  recipients  per  transaction  (de‐
              fault: 1).  Recipient names are generated by prepending a number
              to the recipient address.

       -s session_count
              Run  the specified number of QMQP sessions in parallel (default:
              1).

       -t to  Use the specified recipient address (default: <foo@myhostname>).

       -R interval
              Wait for a random period of time 0 <= n <= interval between mes‐
              sages.  Suspending one thread does  not  affect  other  delivery
              threads.

       -v     Make the program more verbose, for debugging purposes.

       -w interval
              Wait  a fixed time between messages.  Suspending one thread does
              not affect other delivery threads.
