Free mailer mailer software for linux

Swift is a fully OOP Library for sending e-mails from PHP websites and applications. Swift Mailer does not rely on PHPs native mail() function which is known for using high server resources when sending multiple emails. Instead, Swift communicates directly with an SMTP server or a MTA binary to send mail quickly and efficiently.
Swift is comparable to PHPMailer except that it implements an extremely flexible and innovative plugin system meaning you can get the most out of sending emails from your PHP applications. The interface for Swift is both tighter and more intuitive.
I started developing Swift because I moderate a popular PHP forum and its clear from some of the posts we see that PHPs native mail() function just doesnt quite cut it among developers unless you know a lot about how to build emails and you only need to send one message.
The only other popular alternative was PHPMailer which is great, but it just struck me that maybe developers might want something with a little more "umff"! So I wrote Swift initially for the communtity at the PHP Developers Network Forums and have decided to release it now under the LGPL. Enjoy!

KMail Power Tools is meant to be a suite of enhancements to KMail and may be other mail user agents.
It is currently composed of only one (perl) script that acts as a filter (take input from stdin, outputs the modified mail to stdout), adds dialog boxes to kmail, and allows the user to:
- remove all attachments from an email (no user interaction),
- remove selectively attachments, after asking the user,
detach (i.e. save then remove) any attachment to a directory chosen by the user,
- hence reducing the size of your mailbox, while allowing you to backup important attached files.
All these actions are logged within a sentence in the mail body (see below).
Note: removing and detaching is already supported by Thunderbird, but my favourite mailer program is KMail, then...
How it works
KMail allows the definition of filters (like any other email program), but you can define filters:
- which are launched manually,
- which can be programs reading your email on stdin and outputing the result on stdout (or "pipe through").
So I had the idea to use this in order to enhance KMail, and allow it to remove and detach attachments: kmailpt will read and interpret the email (thank you Perl MIME::Parser), then depending on the command line switches, popup a dialog box to ask the user for a directory where to save attachments, and ask him which attachment to remove/detach (thank you Kdialog!).
Also, the sentence "[Attachment removed by jice (26/02/2007 20:33:01): bill.zip]" will be added to the mail body. When you detach an email, it will add a similar sentence, and if the mail body is html, you will even get a link to the new location of the file: "[Attachment saved by jice (26/02/2007 20:36:17) to heavenly.gif]", on which you can even click in order to view the detached file. For text/plain messages, the sentence will be something like: "[Attachment saved by jice (26/02/2007 20:36:17) to file:///home/jice/Images/heavenly.gif]" (unfortunately, although kmail renders http:// or ftp:// urls as links, file:// are not (yet?) - I should enter a bug on bugs.kde.org for this...).
Should you want to know the currently available command line switches, here is the help:
Usage: kmailpt [options]
kmailpt takes an email on stdin, performs actions based
on this mail, then output an email on stdout.
Without any option, it will remove any file attached.
Options:
-d detach the attachments (save and remove)
-q ask which attachment to remove
-h prints this help

XCmail is a MIME and multi POP3 server capable mailtool for X11 using the Xclasses layout library. XCmail was designed completely object orientated and by this may be improved easily.
The main purpose of XCmail is to read and write mails which may have any kind of data added (attached). For this XCmail can handle MIME types and has so called "helpers" to show different types. And XCmail offers "encoders" which encode and decode binary data into ASCII to allow the transport as mail over the Internet.
The GUI (graphical user interface) was designed to be mostly self explaining but of course there may be some things which are not explaining them self like settings or standard names that are unknown to first users.
The GUI was designed to be as simple as it can be and self explaining. Though, there are a few buttons which are not so easy to understand fo first users because are not standard.
XCmail also offers "encoders" which encode and decode binary data into ASCII to allow the transport via mail over the Internet.
The program works with a local mailbox (eg. /var/spool/mail) and multiple POP3 servers. With POP3 XCmail uses the faster UIDL function of POP3 servers (may be disabled if servers dont support this) and has a so called "UIDL history": If you get mails from your POP3 server but dont want to remove them there and later remove them only locally other mailers will read this mails again. Not XCmail! The UIDL history keeps a history of the mails read from the server so it wont read them again.
XCmail supports multiple mailboxes, has an address book for your favority email addresses and XCmail may start external programs to encode mails or handle MIME types.
XCmail also supportes PGP within PGP MIME (RFC 2015)!
Main features:
- allows the user to add multiple parts on one mail, eg. send files together with a text (called attachment)
- get mails from multiple remote mail servers
- send mails to a remote mail server using simple message transfer protokol (SMTP)
- authenticate on SMTP servers - is sometimes required on SMTP servers to stop spammers from relaying
- authenticate at POP3 server before sending mails via SMTP - this is required by some mail servers if they dont offer SMTP AUTH
- encrypt mails so unwanted persons can not read them
- encrypt complete MIME mails - including the attachments. This is a standard specified in RFC 2015
- send a nice and small picture of yourself with any mail - this is shown if the mail is read
- speedup for POP3
- this avoids XCmail from reading the same mails multiple times from the mail server
- to send files (eg. binaries) with a mail they must be encoded - XCmail offers various encoders, from standard uuencode and base64 to Mac HQX
- because not all attached files are programs XCmail offers an open interface to handle those data - eg. open an external viewer for pictures
- with plugins XCmail may be tuned - eg. some encoders and helpers are plugins so they may not be installed if a users doesnt need them - this required less space on disk and memory
- ever send a mail and later seen that it had some words misspelled? With ISpell this is no longer a problem. ISpell offers checks in many langauges!
- Put extra headers in every mail you send, eg some more information on you or some extra settings for mail agents
- put your favorite recipients in XCmails addressbook
- keeps an second internal addressbook for faster choosing an email recipient
- searches your addressbooks for a matching name or address during you type the recipient
- group different folder to one visible vfolder - for better overview
- Dont understand the language of a mail? XCmail may translate it for you by using altavistas babelfish service!
- You want to archiv many or every mail? This takes a lot of disk space?! Use XCmails folder archiv which compresses archived folders using GZIP standard
- sort or remove your mails before you "must" read them
- put are your favorite addresses in the addressbook
- dont know how to translate a word? use the dictionarys in the Web within the XCmail GUI
- using Spam Bouncer as spam filter plugin
- delete selected mails from your POP3 server
- big mails can be transfered explicitely from your POP3 server
- vCards can be read and a personal or official (from your job) vCard can be sent with every mail (you may choose which of them)
- mails of the incoming folder may be moved to a received folder automatically by many options (after reading, replying, forwarding a mail or if it is some days old)
- helps first time users to setup XCmail

BlackMail is a highly configurable SMTP mail filter that runs at a system level as a proxy to your existing mailer. Selectively reject bogus or spam mail during receipt, saving you extra storage space or irate users.
Blackmail operates at a system-wide level: all incoming and optionally outgoing mail is filtered.Will block unwanted mail relaying (if your mailer is unable to) and spams.
The filtering consists of various checks on the SMTP envelope and message headers: if any tests fail then the mail will be bounced. Blackmail can...
Check against spam sites
Check against spam keywords
Check host names and email addresses using DNS for validity
Check against the RBL (Realtime Blackhole List) for spam IP addresses
Check that To: and From: address do not match (a common spam signature)
Check correct header formation e.g. Message-ID
The spam sites and spam keywords are of your choice, you can block who or what you want. Minimal sample lists are provided.
BlackMail is known to work with:
Mailers: Smail, Sendmail, Qmail, Fetchmail
OSes: Aix, various BSD, Irix, Linux, NeXTStep 3.x, Solaris, SunOs, SVR4 (Re-confirmation is required for some of these OSes.)
It should be possible to use BlackMail with most SMTP mailers on most UNIX systems. Blackmail is not designed to run on Windows or OS/2, but if you wish to port it...
