Maildrop reads the message to be delivered, then 8 optionally reads instructions from a file, specifying how to 9 filter mail. Based on these instructions, maildrop may deliver 10 the message to an, or forward it, instead of saving the 11 message in your usual mailbox. 12 Maildrop uses a sophisticated filtering language which allows 13 very complex mail filtering rules to be defined and used. 14 Maildrop provides advanced filtering tools such as RFC821 15 parsing, and GDBM database file support. 16 Maildrop uses a structured, real, meta-programming language in 17 order to define filtering instructions. Its basic features are 18 fast and efficient. At sites which carry a light load, the 19 more advanced, CPU-demanding, features can be used to build 20 very sophisticated mail filters. Maildrop deployments have 21 been reported at sites that support as many as 30,000 22 mailboxes. 23 Sample mail filtering recipes as well as complete documentation 24 is provided in both HTML and man page format. 25Keywords: mail, filter, linux, spam, procmail, maildrop 26Author: mrsam@stop.mail-abuse.org (Sam Varshavchik) 27Maintained-by: mrsam@stop.mail-abuse.org (Sam Varshavchik) 28Primary-site: http://download.sourceforge.net/courier/ 29 485 Kb maildrop-1.0.tar.gz 30 2 kb maildrop.lsm 31Alternate-site: ftp://metalab.unc.edu/pub/Linux/system/mail/mailhandlers 32Copying-policy: GPL 33End 34
