A POP3 and IMAP4 mail retriever with reliable Maildir and command delivery.
|
|
|
|
Summary of features:
|
|
- Retrieve mail from an unlimited number of POP3/IMAP4 mailboxes and servers.
|
|
- Support for POP3-over-SSL and IMAP-over-SSL, as well as SDPS
|
|
WARNING: even with SSL, "no certificate or key validation is done." so
|
|
that getmail does not detect or protect from man-in-the-middle attacks.
|
|
- Support for multidrop or domain mailboxes.
|
|
- Safe and reliable delivery to qmail-style Maildirs, as well as program
|
|
(pipe) delivery for use with arbitrary external MDAs. Includes an MDA
|
|
for mbox files that supports mboxrd format and fcntl-type flock locking.
|
|
- Does not destroy information by rewriting mail headers.
|
|
- Does not cause mail loops by doing SMTP injection, and therefore does
|
|
not require that you run an MTA (like qmail or sendmail) on your host.
|
|
- Can remember which mail it has already retrieved, and can be set to
|
|
only download new messages.
|
|
- Written in Python, and therefore easy to extend or customize.
|
|
- Simple to install, configure, and use.
