TipJar/MTA version 0.14 ======================= An outgoing SMTP system. All messages live in their own files under a directory that should be on a file system big enough to hold everything. We keep track of bad addresses, domains we failed to connect to, and queued messages with connection problems by domain, in additional files. See the HISTORY section of the pod in the main module for the full (and hopefully not growing too much more!) feature list. Messages that receive 400-level error codes (temporary delivery failure) will be retried at increasing random intervals for a week. use TipJar::MTA::queue to add messages for sending, or simply link your properly formatted message into the working directory. INSTALLATION To install this module type the following: perl Makefile.PL make make test make install or simply unpack it and refer to the directory with Perl's -I command line option. DEPENDENCIES This module uses "dnsmx" from the djbdns package (http://cr.yp.to/djbdns) for the lookups at this time. A Net::DNS version would be welcome. The DNS function is abstracted, in the dnsmx() function, near the beginning of the module. COPYRIGHT AND LICENCE Copyright (C) 2003 David Nicol / TipJar LLC, released GPL/AL.
