  • DMARC
  • ARC
  • EAI

Need something else? Tell us about it.

Our [[roadmap]] describes our plans in somewhat more detail.

Which implementations won't last forever?

There are many, many [[patches]] out there. Needless to say, not all of them meet notqmail's design goals. Two examples of popular, well-loved patches we've personally used and appreciated whose features we hope to provide in other ways:

  • The Qmail-TLS patch, because a more qmail-ish design is available: UCSPI-TLS (implemented in s6-networking and ucspi-ssl) extends UCSPI to provide opportunistic TLS for client and server applications in a separate and privilege-separated address space
  • Any of the usual SMTP AUTH patches, because a more qmail-ish design is available: Amitai Schleier's acceptutils extends qmail's POP3 authentication architecture to SMTP and OFMIP, enabling new user-controlled features
