The following module was proposed for inclusion in the Module List:
modid: Net::Server::SMTP
DSLIP: adpOp
description: Local and Remote SMTP Server Class
userid: RHANDOM (Paul T. Seamons)
chapterid: 19 (Mail_and_Usenet_News)
communities:
Company, in email conversations with various other CPAN authors.
similar:
Net::SMTP::Server
rationale:
I wrote a suite of mail tools for my company. There were no viable
perl alternatives available that I could find. I also liked the way
in which Net::FTPServer and Net::Server were written and wanted to
be able to have simillar functionality and load bearing in mail
servers. This is intended to be a suite of tools which include
Mail::Spool, Net::Server::SMTP, Net::Server::POP, and
Net::Server::IMAP.
There are some modules that have limited functionality already in
existance. Net::SMTP::Server exists but is only a minimal relay.
Net::Server::SMTP would handle remote and local delivery as well as
spooling, retrying, etc. as well as being able to take more
connections via Net::Server. Mail::POPServer exists but is function
oriented and not easily extended. Net::Server::POP is intended to be
extensible and able to bear large loads.
Internally in our company, we are have been using versions of these
modules for a couple of months and have around 3000 mailboxes using
the modules.
