Description :
Mailutils is a set of utilities and daemons for processing e-mail.
All Mailutils programs are able to operate on mailboxes of various
formats, including UNIX maildrops, maildir, and transparently
accessed remote mailboxes (IMAP4, POP3, SMTP).
Included is an implementation of the traditional UNIX mail reader,
"mail", command line utilities such as "frm", "messages", "readmsg",
as well as "sieve", a flexible utility for filtering the incoming
mail.
A special feature of Mailutils is an implementation of the
MH Message Handling System, which combines the UNIX
philosophy with a flexibility of Mailutils libraries, thus
allowing to incorporate mail from remote mailboxes.
For system administrators, Mailutils provides a set of daemons
for delivering and reading electronic mail, including
pop3d, imap4d and a universal mail delivery agent, called maidag.
