NAME
Apache::Qpsmtpd - a mod_perl-2 connection handler for qpsmtpd
SYNOPSIS
Listen 0.0.0.0:25 smtp
AcceptFilter smtp none
## "smtp" and the AcceptFilter are required for Linux, FreeBSD
## with apache >= 2.1.5, for others it doesn't hurt. See also
## http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/core.html#acceptfilter
## and http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mpm_common.html#listen
LoadModule perl_module modules/mod_perl.so

<VirtualHost _default_:25>
PerlModule Apache::Qpsmtpd
PerlProcessConnectionHandler Apache::Qpsmtpd

DESCRIPTION
This module implements a mod_perl/apache 2.0 connection handler that turns Apache into an SMTP server using Qpsmtpd.
It also allows you to set single-valued config options (such as loglevel, as seen above) using "PerlSetVar" in httpd.conf.
This module should be considered beta software as it is not yet widely tested. However it is currently the fastest way to run Qpsmtpd, so
if performance is important to you then consider this module.
BUGS
Probably a few. Make sure you test your plugins carefully.
The Apache scoreboard (/server-status/) mostly works and shows connections, but could do with some enhancements specific to SMTP.
