= Bug Fixes
- Maildir delivery is unsafe. See new
http://cr.yp.to/proto/maildir.html
= Features
- Mail::Deliver
- Uniform lock handling in deliver_mbox and deliver_pipe
- Mail::DeliveryAgent
- Implement some kind of plugin architecture. It can be simple,
based on requiring files and including them into the Deliver
class. Or perhaps a Deliver::Plugin class to fix namespace
issues.
- filter method: make it work if the command starts printing
before it
has read the entire message.
- forward method?
- pipe method (lockfile attribute?)
- ignore method (reason attribute?)
- resend method (call it forward?)
- Mail::DeliveryAgent#save doen't generate a DeliveryFailure for all
possible delivery failures. Test this.
- Unknown
- Implement an auto-responder.
- Implement sender based pending queues
The queue lives under a single directory of this structure:
<dir>/senders/<sender-address>/msgs/<id>
<dir>/senders/<sender-address>/meta
<dir>/sender-count
<dir>/lock
Access to the entire directory is controlled by an flock on the lock
file. This simplifies other issues.
The <sender-address> is a sanitized version of the actual sender
address. Every character outside the range of a-zA-Z and @ is HEX
encoded.
- Content
From: field set to the user that received the mail. This
should be configurable. This should allow for guessing among
several (explicitly listed) valid possibilities.
To: indicates the recipient of the response.
Date: indicate the date and time at which the response was
composed.
Subject: Auto-Re: (original subject)
In-Reply-To: included if there was a message-id of the message.
References: included as well.
Context should be text/plain only.
SMTP MAIL FROM: <>
Auto-Submitted: auto-replied (reason)
- When responses are sent
Not when there is an Auto-Submitted: header with value of
auto-replied or auto-generated.
Not when there is a Precidence: bulk or Precidence: list header.
Not to the same sender within a period of days (7 default).
When a valid address for the recipient is in the To: Cc: or Bcc:
headers.
When the recipient is owner-*, *-request, "MAILER-DAEMON", etc
(see procmail's FROM_DAEMON regexp).
- Where responses are sent
To the Return-Path: header only or _maybe_ the From_ field if
enabled.
= Minor Features
- ListDetector -- like Perl's Mail::ListDetector to detect if a
message is sent to a mailing list and if so what list.
