Description: Batched SMTP mailer for sendmail and postfix
This package adds a new "mailer" named bsmtp to sendmail or postfix,
which allows you to use batched SMTP as protocol. BSMTP is used in
UUCP environments and allows to transport many mails as a
(compressed) batch instead of transporting every single mail. So
bsmtp is an alternative to rmail.
.
Special features of this bsmtp package:
- Completely written in C.
- Configurable batch size (automatically sends batch to uux when a
defined size is reached).
- Creates backups of all outgoing batches (and removes them regularly)
- Works with sendmail and postfix.
