The pre06 is same as pre05 *but* it has the new "filter" command for
custom mail processing:

http://www.xmailserver.org/xmail-1.19-pre06.tar.gz
http://www.xmailserver.org/xmail-1.19-pre06.win32bin.zip

Feedback on the new command is welcome ...

* Implemented the "filter" command for custom mail processing
(MAILPROC.TAB, cmdaliases and custom domains).

* If "RemoveSpoolErrors" is set inside the SERVER.TAB file, messages
are never frozen. Before there was a special case (delivery failure
and delivery notification failure) that could have lead to frozen
messages.

* Made "aliasdomainadd" to check for the existence of the alias domain
(and reject the command if existing).

* Introduced a new environment variable recognized by XMail
(XMAIL_PID_DIR), to let the user to specify a custom PID file
directory (this is for Unix ports only).

* Implemented ability to stop custom mail processing upon certain exit
codes from external commands execution.

* The SPAMMERS.TAB check is now bypassable (see doc for details).

* 'ATTENTION': Changed the "aliasdomainlist" syntax and output format
(see doc for details).

* Made (on Unix setups) the PID file name to be dependent on the
daemon file name.

* Implemeted a domain-wise MAILPROC.TAB and extended its "redirect"
and "lredirect" commands to support account specific (USER@DOMAIN)
and domain targets (DOMAIN).

* Implemented SMTP filters to allow users to reject the SMTP session
before and after the remote client data has been received.

mailproc.tab / filter:

QUOTE

[FILTER]

"filter"[TAB]"priority"[TAB]"wait-timeout"[TAB]"command-path"[TAB]=>
"arg-or-macro"[TAB]...[NEWLINE]

where:

filter
command keyword

priority
process priority: 0 = normal -1 = below normal +1 = above normal

wait-timeout
wait timeout for process execution in seconds: 0 = nowait

With filters, it is not suggested to use @@TMPFILE, since the filter
will never have the ability to change the message content in that
way. Also, to avoid problems very difficult to troubleshoot, it is
suggested to give the filter 'ENOUGH' timeout to complete (90
seconds or more). See [MESSAGE FILTERS] for detailed information
about return codes. In the filter command, the "Stop Filter
Processing" return flag will make XMail to stop the execution of the
current custom processing file.

The 'filter' command will pass the message file to a custom external
filter, that after inspecting it, has the option to accept, reject or
modify it. Care should be taken to properly re-format the message after
changing it, to avoid message corruption. The 'filter' command 'CANNOT'
successfully change the private XMail's header part of the spool
message.
