NAME
smtpfront - SMTP Front EndsSYNOPSIS
smtpfrontDESCRIPTION
The code for SMTP is divided internally into two sections: front-end and back-end code. The front-end code handles the low-level details of the protocol. The back-end code handles the validation and delivery details in a protocol-independant fashion.FEATURES
The following features are common to all SMTP front-ends:- o
- Validates senders and recipients according to ``mailrules'' processing.
- o
- If $RELAYCLIENT is set, all recipient addresses not rejected by mail rules are allowed, and its contents are appended to each recipient address. Back-end validation is omitted.
- o
- Handles RFC 2554 SMTP authentication. After authentication all recipients not rejected by mail rules are allowed, and back-end validation is omitted.
- o
- Automatically handles either bare NL or RFC 821/2821 compliant CR/NL end-of-line conventions.
- o
- Rejects messages that exceed $DATABYTES bytes in the body.
- o
- Times out connections after $TIMEOUT seconds of inactivity (defaults to 1200 seconds or 20 minutes), or $SESSION_TIMEOUT seconds after the connection was established (defaults to 86400 seconds or 24 hours).
- o
- Counts the number of "Received:" and "Delivered-To:" headers, and rejects the message if more than $MAXHOPS of either are seen (defaults to 100).
- o
- All error responses are logged.
- o
- Handles (ignores) RFC 1869 extended parameters on the ``RCPT TO:'' and ``MAIL FROM:'' commands.
- o
- Initial greeting message is configureable by $SMTPGREETING.
- o
- Rejects bounce messages (messages with an empty envelope sender) that attempt to deliver to multiple recipients.
- o
- Optionally adds a fixup "Received:" header for hosts that have different incoming and outgoing hostnames or IPs. Set $FIXUP_RECEIVED_HOST and $FIXUP_RECEIVED_IP if you want this header added.
BACK ENDS
- smtpfront-echo
- Uses the echo backend to simply echo back the sender and recipient parameters, and the size of the data to the client.
- smtpfront-qmail
- Uses the ``qmail validation features'' to validate addresses, and the ``qmail backend'' to deliver messages.
- smtpfront-reject
- If $SMTPREJECT is set, all SMTP commands are rejected with this message. If the message starts with a "-", a permanent error number is used and the leading "-" is stripped. If $SMTPREJECT is not set, it execs its command line.
