Description Hartmut Goebel 2015-02-02 17:18:17 CET

Nullmailer is a replacement MTA for hosts, which relay to a fixed set of
smart relays. It is designed to be simple to configure and especially
useful on slave machines and in chroots.

I find this really useful! It's much smaller and much simpler to configure than postfix for this kind of usage. And in difference to e.g. msmtp, this is a real daemon, so it tries again if the relay may be done, while msmtp simply drops the mail.

RPMs are already available for OpenSuSe and Fedora, see <http://rpm.pbone.net/index.php3/stat/4/idpl/23505118/dir//com/nullmailer-1.04-16.98.i586.rpm.html> and <http://rpm.pbone.net/index.php3?stat=3&search=nullmailer&srodzaj=3>

Sorry, bugs@ml and pkg-bugs@ml members, for the avalanche.

72 bugs with the "New RPM package request" component, had a severity of "normal" or more, which can lead to losing precious time when searching Bugzilla for bugs that urgently need to get fixed

Now mass-changing that to "enhancement", as it should be for package requests.

@ the reporter of this package request

Please check in http://madb.mageia.org/ whether this software did already get packaged, and close this bug report if it did.
Please do also close it if you find a package with the same purpose, that meets your needs.

Severity: normal => enhancement
