fmaild- a forwarding mailer daemon |
Welcome to the homepage for fmaild - a forwarding mailer daemon. This daemon is a server taking care of incoming SMTP (mail) connections and forwarding them to another message transfer agent (MTA), i.e. another SMTP server. fmaild reads the envelope recipient of the incoming email, replaces it with a new recipient according to an alias file and forwards the mail to the new recipient via the second MTA:
Email with recipient R1. |
→ | fmaild (MX server for R1.) |
→ | Email with recipient R2. |
→ | External MTA (SMTP) server, e.g. at your ISP. |
→ | (MX server for R2.) |
This function can be performed using other commonly used MTA's such as sendmail or qmail but fmaild has a relatively small memory usage and may therefore be an alternative if the forwarding function is all that is needed.
fmaild is written in C++ and should compile properly on most NetBSD, LINUX and UNIX systems and is distributed using The GNU General Public License (GNU GPL) version 3. Documentation on the current state of the source code can be found in the auto-generated documentation and a change log is available here.
