Maildrop Description

maildrop is the mail filter/mail delivery agent that's used by the Courier Mail Server. maildrop is the mail filter/mail delivery agent that's used by the Courier Mail Server. You do not need to download maildrop from here if you already have Courier installed. This is a standalone build of the maildrop mail filter that can be used with other mail servers.maildrop is a filter for local mail delivery agent. It reads the messages and redirects them to users mailbox.maildrop optionally reads instructions from a file, which describe how to filter incoming mail. These instructions can direct maildrop to deliver the message to an alternate mailbox, or forward it somewhere else. Unlike procmail, maildrop uses a structured filtering language.maildrop is written in C++, and is significantly larger than procmail. However, it uses resources much more efficiently. Unlike procmail, maildrop will not read a 10 megabyte mail message into memory. Large messages are saved in a temporary file, and are filtered from the temporary file. If the standard input to maildrop is a file, and not a pipe, a temporary file will not be necessary.maildrop checks the mail delivery instruction syntax from the filter file, before attempting to deliver a message. Unlike procmail, if the filter file contains syntax errors, maildrop terminates without delivering the message. The user can fix the typo without causing any mail to be lost. What's New in This Release: · maildrop's license formally changed to GPL 3. · reformail: generate larger Message-ID: headers on 64 bit platforms. If · standard input is seekable, don't bother wasting time discarding stdin. · maildrop: ignore SIGPIPE if child process did not fully consume stdin.
