43 * SYSEXITS.H -- Exit status codes employed by the mail subsystem.
45 * This include file attempts to categorize possible error
46 * exit statuses for mail subsystem.
48 * Error numbers begin at EX__BASE to reduce the possibility of
49 * clashing with other exit statuses that random programs may
50 * already return. The meaning of the codes is approximately
51 * as follows:
53 * EX_USAGE -- The command was used incorrectly, e.g., with
54 * the wrong number of arguments, a bad flag, a bad
55 * syntax in a parameter, or whatever.
56 * EX_DATAERR -- The input data was incorrect in some way.
57 * This should only be used for user's data & not
58 * system files.
59 * EX_NOINPUT -- An input file (not a system file) did not
60 * exist or was not readable. This could also include
61 * errors like "No message" to a mailer (if it cared
62 * to catch it).
63 * EX_NOUSER -- The user specified did not exist. This might
64 * be used for mail addresses or remote logins.
65 * EX_NOHOST -- The host specified did not exist. This is used
66 * in mail addresses or network requests.
67 * EX_UNAVAILABLE -- A service is unavailable. This can occur
68 * if a support program or file does not exist. This
69 * can also be used as a catchall message when something
70 * you wanted to do doesn't work, but you don't know
71 * why.
72 * EX_SOFTWARE -- An internal software error has been detected.
73 * This should be limited to non-operating system related
74 * errors as possible.
75 * EX_OSERR -- An operating system error has been detected.
76 * This is intended to be used for such things as "cannot
77 * fork", "cannot create pipe", or the like. It includes
78 * things like getuid returning a user that does not
79 * exist in the passwd file.
80 * EX_OSFILE -- Some system file (e.g., /etc/passwd, /etc/utmp,
81 * etc.) does not exist, cannot be opened, or has some
82 * sort of error (e.g., syntax error).
83 * EX_CANTCREAT -- A (user specified) output file cannot be
84 * created.
85 * EX_IOERR -- An error occurred while doing I/O on some file.
86 * EX_TEMPFAIL -- temporary failure, indicating something that
87 * is not really an error. In sendmail, this means
88 * that a mailer (e.g.) could not create a connection,
89 * and the request should be reattempted later.
90 * EX_PROTOCOL -- the remote system returned something that
91 * was "not possible" during a protocol exchange.
92 * EX_NOPERM -- You did not have sufficient permission to
93 * perform the operation. This is not intended for
94 * file system problems, which should use NOINPUT or
95 * CANTCREAT, but rather for higher level permissions.
96 * For example, kre uses this to restrict who students
97 * can send mail to.
