- Description
- -----------
-
- This is sSMTP, a program that replaces sendmail on workstations
- that should send their mail via a departmental mailhub. This
- program accepts mail and sends it to the mailhub, optionally
- replacing the domain in the From: line with a different one.
-
- It uses no external confuguration information, and so can be
- installed by copying the (right!) binary to a given machine.
- All configuration is done via parameters to make and/or in the
- Makefile.
- ...
- This is not a complete sendmail. It is only a program to post
- mail to a mailhub for people who don't **want** a complete sendmail.
-
- Type of systems supported:
- Berkeley-derived, or ones othewise using /user/lib/sendmail as a
- mail transfer agent.
- In use on SunOS 4.1.1 and Ultrix 4.2, tested briefly on Aix 3.2 and
- NeXT.
