It accepts mails from locally installed Mail User Agents (MUA) +and delivers the mails either locally or to a remote destination. +Remote delivery includes several features like TLS/SSL support and +SMTP authentication. + +dma is not intended as a replacement for real, big MTAs like sendmail(8) +or postfix(1). Consequently, dma does not listen on port 25 for +incoming connections. + + +Building +-------- + + make + + +Installation +------------ + + make install sendmail-link mailq-link install-spool-dirs + + +Contact +------- + +Simon Schubert <2@0x2c.org>
