:mod:`smtpd` --- SMTP Server
|
|
============================
|
|
|
|
.. module:: smtpd
|
|
:synopsis: A SMTP server implementation in Python.

This module offers several classes to implement SMTP servers. One is a generic
|
|
do-nothing implementation, which can be overridden, while the other two offer
|
|
specific mail-sending strategies.
|
|
|
|
|
|
SMTPServer Objects
|
|
------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. class:: SMTPServer(localaddr, remoteaddr)
|
|
|
|
Create a new :class:`SMTPServer` object, which binds to local address
|
|
*localaddr*. It will treat *remoteaddr* as an upstream SMTP relayer. It
|
|
inherits from :class:`asyncore.dispatcher`, and so will insert itself into
|
|
:mod:`asyncore`'s event loop on instantiation.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. method:: process_message(peer, mailfrom, rcpttos, data)
|
|
|
|
Raise :exc:`NotImplementedError` exception. Override this in subclasses to
|
|
do something useful with this message. Whatever was passed in the
|
|
constructor as *remoteaddr* will be available as the :attr:`_remoteaddr`
|
|
attribute. *peer* is the remote host's address, *mailfrom* is the envelope
|
|
originator, *rcpttos* are the envelope recipients and *data* is a string
|
|
containing the contents of the e-mail (which should be in :rfc:`2822`
|
|
format).
|
|
|
|
|
|
DebuggingServer Objects
|
|
-----------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. class:: DebuggingServer(localaddr, remoteaddr)
|
|
|
|
Create a new debugging server. Arguments are as per :class:`SMTPServer`.
|
|
Messages will be discarded, and printed on stdout.
|
|
|
|
|
|
PureProxy Objects
|
|
-----------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. class:: PureProxy(localaddr, remoteaddr)
|
|
|
|
Create a new pure proxy server. Arguments are as per :class:`SMTPServer`.
|
|
Everything will be relayed to *remoteaddr*. Note that running this has a good
|
|
chance to make you into an open relay, so please be careful.
|
|
|
|
|
|
MailmanProxy Objects
|
|
--------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. class:: MailmanProxy(localaddr, remoteaddr)
|
|
|
|
Create a new pure proxy server. Arguments are as per :class:`SMTPServer`.
|
|
Everything will be relayed to *remoteaddr*, unless local mailman configurations
|
|
knows about an address, in which case it will be handled via mailman. Note that
|
|
running this has a good chance to make you into an open relay, so please be
|
|
careful.
