:mod:`smtpd` --- SMTP Server
============================
.. module:: smtpd
:synopsis: A SMTP server implementation in Python.
.. moduleauthor:: Barry Warsaw <barry@zope.com>
.. sectionauthor:: Moshe Zadka <moshez@moshez.org>
**Source code:** :source:`Lib/smtpd.py`
--------------
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. Both
*localaddr* and *remoteaddr* should be a :ref:`(host, port) <host_port>`
tuple. The object 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.
