Description: Mail proxy for firewalls with anti-spam and anti-relay features
Smtpd uses two programs, smtpd which listens for incoming mail and places
it in a private queue, and smtpfwdd, which invokes sendmail to deliver
messages from the queue. The configuration file for smtpd has powerful
features for controlling the acceptance of incoming mail.
.
It is particularly useful for firewall sites, where the policy aspects of
which mail should be accepted (in smtpd's configuration file) are clearly
separated from the routing and other aspects of the mail configuration
(which remain in the sendmail configuration file)
