MeTA1 1.0.PreAlpha23.0 (Default branch)
MeTA1 is a modularized message transfer agent (MTA)consisting of five (or more) persistent processes,four of which are multi-threaded. A queue managercontrols SMTP servers and SMTP clients to receiveand send email messages, an address resolverprovides lookups in various maps (including DNS)for mail routing, and a main control programstarts the other processes and watches over theirexecution. The queue manager organizes the flow ofmessages through the system and provides measuresto avoid overloading the local or remote systemsby implementing a central control instance. It issimple to configure using a C-like syntax and issecure and efficient.License: Other/Proprietary License with SourceChanges:
This release fixes a few bugs, most of which arerelated to createmap and the cdb map type. Two newfeatures were added. The interesting one is thatthe SMTP server now treats "Relaying denied"errors as "bad" commands. This means that thoserejections count for max_bad_commands_per_sessionand max_bad_commands_per_transaction. This isuseful when a client is broken enough to tryseveral relaying attempts.Image

MSG2SMTP(1)						      General Commands Manual						       MSG2SMTP(1)

NAME

       msg2smtp - a 'bridge' between MUA and GNU Anubis

SYNOPSIS

       msg2smtp -h HOST [-p PORT] [-e HELO_DOMAIN] [-U USERNAME] [-P PASSWORD] [-m MECHANISM] [-d]

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the msg2smtp command.

       msg2smtp is a program that takes a mail message on STDIN and relays it to an SMTP server.

       MUA (Mutt) --> msg2smtp.pl --> Anubis --> remote or local MTA

       This can be used whenever you want to convert a mail message on STDIN and talk to an SMTP server as output. Just like sendmail do.

       If you want to use this script with Mutt, add this to Mutt configuration file:

       set sendmail="/PATHTO/msg2smtp.pl -h localhost"

       If you run GNU Anubis on port 4000, you would put this line in your muttrc:

       set sendmail="/PATHTO/msg2smtp.pl -h localhost -p 4000"

OPTIONS

       A summary of options is included below:

       -h HOST
	      hostname of SMTP server, often 'localhost',

       -p PORT
	      port of the SMTP server,

       -e HELO_DOMAIN
	      domain we use when to say helo to smtp server,
