mvmcas --
a Mail Client Assessment Server.
This is consulted by mvmf utilities (mainly mvmtr)
to receive and report information about the entities that
attempt to send mail to the local servers.
mvmda --
a Mail Delivery Agent (MDA) aka Local Delivery Agent (LDA).
Highly scriptable using mfl, it
may be used with many popular mail systems (e.g. qmail,
sendmail, postfix, exim).
mvmtr --
a Mail Transport Agent (MTA) receiver. Designed to be
inserted in place of qmail's qmail-smtpd program, but
with a future that may make it independent of qmail.
Also supports mfl scripting, and is
expected to evolve to heavily interact with user-level
scripts at SMTP time.
mvmts --
a Mail Transport Agent (MTA) sender. Designed to be
inserted in place of qmail's qmail-remote program, it
can also be used independently. It adds encrypted sending
via TLS and DKIM signing.
May also support mfl scripting.
Misc tools including mvmda logfile summarizer and DNSBL
command line inquiry utility.
man pages -- various mvmf component man
pages collected in one place.
Status of the mvmf package --
any special notes that apply to the state of the package as
a whole.
(last updated May 6, 2024)
FAQ for the mvmf package (each
individual utility may also have its own FAQ).
MFL --
The scripting language used by some of the mvmf utilities.
mfl wholly incorporates the IETF SIEVE mail filtering
language, powerfully combined with a strongly typed C-like
procedural language.
