Free Mail Server
Description
Warning: Discontinued project
This project was started because of the SPAM problem. In my work we were being used as relay by spammers and our server could not block this behaviour. I started this server as a quick-fix for the problem but then it growed to a full blown mail server.
Some time after that the project was not needed anymore and i also lost part of the source code in a hard disk crash, so the project is now cancelled.
However i make available the existing source code (in Borland Delphi) so others can benefit. The license states that you can analyze the code and use only parts of it, but you can’t complete it. So you will have to make your own program.
Features

- SMTP extensions (RFC-1869) supported: 521-code (RFC-1846), SIZE (RFC-1870)
