The smtpd daemon talks the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) with other
|
|
SMTP daemons to receive mail from them, and saves it into a spool directory
|
|
for later processing. It is the store portion of an SMTP store and forward
|
|
proxy. The symbiotic companion program smtpfwdd is used to forward the
|
|
spooled mail on to its eventual destination.
|
|
|
|
smtpd is invoked from a super-server such as inetd or juniperd.
|
|
|
|
There is a patch available to do MAPS RBL style lookups at
|
|
ftp://ftp.obtuse.com/pub/smtpd/patch-smtpd-2.0-RBL.gz.
|
|
|
|
Documentation is avaialble online with the juniper documentation.
|
|
See the docs for smtpd as a starting point, at
|
|
http://www.obtuse.com/juniper-docs/man/smtpd.html
|
|
|
|
Access control rules based on the connecting host, and the smtp envelope are
|
|
supported. It contains some powerful features for stopping inbound or
|
|
outbound SPAM.
