Free Stuff

Today we released lots of free goodies! First, we officially launched Webmail Lite. And second, we launched the free code section of our website. Below is a short blurb about the code that we released, see the documentation of each utility for a full description.

MAILBOMB SMTPD POLICY DAEMON FOR POSTFIX
---------------------------------------------------------
This program is a Policy Daemon for Postfix MTAs version 2.1 or later. It's purpose is to identify unacceptable volumes of mail from various sources, and take action to prevent that mail from being delivered. The most common use is to limit the rate of mail that local users are allowed to send. This is especially useful to companies who provide email hosting services to a large userbase and who need to catch spammers who are abusing their system, BEFORE the unacceptable use can damage the provider's reputation.

cleanq
------
This utilty searches for mail in the Postfix mail queue who's first mailq output line matches the specified pattern. The script will remove all matching emails from the mail queue, moving them to a folder - either a subdirectory of the Postfix mail queue directory called "cleanq/PATTERN" or DIRECTORY_NAME depending upon if DIRECTORY_NAME was passed to this script as the second parameter.

The most useful way to use this utility is to pass the sender's email address or domain name as the only parameter.

mq
---
This utilty displays the contents of the Postfix mail queue, outputting the details for each message on a sigle line.

qv
--
This utilty displays an email that is in the Postfix mail queue, coresponding to QUEUEID.

qvmv
------
This utilty deletes an email that is in the Postfix mail queue, coresponding to QUEUEID.

showdb
--------
This utilty displays the contents of a DB_File.

Email Auto-Config
------------------
This is the source code for a program that will automatically configure a user’s Webmail.us-hosted email account in Outlook, Netscape Mail, Thunderbird, or Eudora. It can configure a new account or adjust the configuration settings for an existing account. The Email Auto-Config tool is only for Secure POP3 accounts.
