# NAME
#	tcp_table 5
# SUMMARY
#	Postfix client/server table lookup protocol
# SYNOPSIS
#	\fBpostmap -q "\fIstring\fB" tcp:\fIhost:port\fR
#
#	\fBpostmap -q - tcp:\fIhost:port\fB <\fIinputfile\fR
# DESCRIPTION
#       The Postfix mail system uses optional tables for address
#       rewriting or mail routing. These tables are usually in
#       \fBdbm\fR or \fBdb\fR format. Alternatively, table lookups
#       can be directed to a TCP server.
#
#       To find out what types of lookup tables your Postfix system
#       supports use the "\fBpostconf -m\fR" command.
#
#       To test lookup tables, use the "\fBpostmap -q\fR" command as
#       described in the SYNOPSIS above.
# PROTOCOL DESCRIPTION
# .ad
# .fi
#	The TCP map class implements a very simple protocol: the client
#	sends a request, and the server sends one reply. Requests and
#	replies are sent as one line of ASCII text, terminated by the
#	ASCII newline character. Request and reply parameters (see below)
#	are separated by whitespace.
#
#	Send and receive operations must complete in 100 seconds.
# REQUEST FORMAT
# .ad
# .fi
#	Each request specifies a command, a lookup key, and possibly a
#	lookup result.
# .IP "\fBget\fR SPACE \fIkey\fR NEWLINE"
#	Look up data under the specified key.
# .IP "\fBput\fR SPACE \fIkey\fR SPACE \fIvalue\fR NEWLINE"
#	This request is currently not implemented.
# REPLY FORMAT
# .ad
# .fi
#	Each reply specifies a status code and text. Replies must be no
#	longer than 4096 characters including the newline terminator.
# .IP "\fB500\fR SPACE \fItext\fR NEWLINE"
#	In case of a lookup request, the requested data does not exist.
#	In case of an update request, the request was rejected.
#	The text describes the nature of the problem.
# .IP "\fB400\fR SPACE \fItext\fR NEWLINE"
#	This indicates an error condition. The text describes the nature of
#	the problem. The client should retry the request later.
# .IP "\fB200\fR SPACE \fItext\fR NEWLINE"
#	The request was successful. In the case of a lookup request,
#	the text contains an encoded version of the requested data.
# ENCODING
# .ad
# .fi
#	In request and reply parameters, the character %, each non-printing
#	character, and each whitespace character must be replaced by %XX,
#	where XX is the corresponding ASCII hexadecimal character value. The
#	hexadecimal codes can be specified in any case (upper, lower, mixed).
#
#	The Postfix client always encodes a request.
#	The server may omit the encoding as long as the reply
#	is guaranteed to not contain the % or NEWLINE character.
# SECURITY
# .ad
# .fi
#	Do not use TCP lookup tables for security critical purposes.
#	The client-server connection is not protected and the server
#	is not authenticated.
# BUGS
#	Only the lookup method is currently implemented.
#
#	The client does not hang up when the connection is idle for
#	a long time.
