jk_procmailwrapper(8)

NAME
jk_procmailwrapper - a wrapper to prevent procmail execution by jailed users

DESCRIPTION
jk_procmailwrapper is a wrapper around the regular procmail utility. For regular users it will execute the normal procmail utility. For users that are in a chroot jail (the home directory contains a . character) it will change root into the jail, and execute the procmail utility inside the jail. This enables safe mail delivery for jailed users. Without this utility, users in a jail can execute commands outside the jail by placing them in their .procmailrc. It should be used as a replacement for procmail in your mail server's configuration.

WARNING
If your mailserver allows users to have a .forward file, they can still run scripts outside the jail! Make sure users cannot use a .forward file to run scripts on the real system!!
