TMDA Feature Highlights

  • Free (OpenSource) software.

  • Written entirely in Python: an interpreted, interactive, object-oriented programming language.

  • Active and open development.

  • MTA independent (supports qmail, Postfix, Exim, Courier, and Sendmail).

  • Integrated "blacklist" and "whitelist" functionality.

  • Optional automatic whitelisting of confirmed senders.

  • tmda-cgi, a comprehensive web-management facility for TMDA.

  • Easy customization of auto-responses through a template system with complete I18N support, including multi-byte character sets (e.g, Chinese, Japanese, Korean).

  • Local mail delivery, including qmail-style Maildirs, mboxrd-format mboxes, program (pipe) delivery, and forward to an e-mail address.

  • Smart auto-responding -- won't reply to a mailing list, bounce message, or another auto-response. Includes auto-response rate limiting to prevent mail loops.

  • Client-side support for both Unix and non-Unix (e.g, Outlook, Eudora, Mozilla) mail clients through tmda-ofmipd.

  • Package installation available for Linux, and Free/Net/OpenBSD.

  • Supports vpopmail and vmailmgr.

  • Flexible filtering language allowing fine-grained control over how incoming and outgoing mail is disposed of.

  • Supports DBM and CDB databases, including on-demand auto-regeneration of DB files.

  • Optional logging of incoming and outgoing messages.

  • Use of HMAC (Hashed Message Authentication Codes) for "cookie" generation and verification.
