README for NetServer::SMTP

NetServer::SMTP is a perl module that implements a minimal SMTP server as perl RFC 821.

<WARNING>

First alpha release -- work in progress! Don't try to use this for anything mission-critical. Found a bug? Let me know!
</WARNING>

NetServer::SMTP requires:

• Perl 5.004 or later
• The following modules: -- IO::Socket (part of the standard distribution, or available from

  CPAN) -- NetServer::Generic -- Mail::Internet (and related Mail-Utils) -- Data::Dumper -- FreezeThaw

One example is included:

leafmail -- a simple mailserver that accepts connections and queues

              incoming mail for delivery via a smarthost. (Local
              delivery is not supported -- as yet).

To install NetServer::SMTP, follow the usual Perl module installation practice, viz (probably as root):

cd SMTP
perl Makefile.PL
make
make install
