.SH DESCRIPTION
.IX Header "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:
.IP "Testing the performance of a policy daemon" 4
.IX Item "Testing the performance of a policy daemon"
.PD 0
.IP "Pre-seeding a Greylist policy daemon with data from the logs" 4
.IX Item "Pre-seeding a Greylist policy daemon with data from the logs"
.PD
.PP
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.
.PP
Also note that a non-standard attribute is being generated: policy_test_time
contains the Unix timestamp of when the client connected.
