SMTP-after-POP Homepage

General

sap.pl is a Free PERL skript for efficient SMPT-after-POP on servers with sendmail 8.x (might also work with other versions) and the well known IMAP4/POP3 server (ipop3d) by Mark Crispin.
As of 2004-02-24, with release 1.04, the script does also look for IMAP logins (imapd), therefore it provides SMTP-after-POP-or-IMAP now.

Download and Installation

• Download sap-1.04.tar.gz and extract it.
• Copy sap.pl to a directory of your choice
• Perhaps, change the pathnames/filenames set at the beginning of the script:
  • $popauthspool = "/var/spool/popauth";
    directory for SaP's temporary data.
  • $maillogfile = "/var/log/mail";
    maillog your ipop3d writes to.
  • $smaccessfile = "/etc/mail/access";
    access file for sendmail, assuming your sendmail reads the hashed version $smaccessfile . ".db" for access control.
• Create the temporary data directory (/var/spool/popauth or whatever you changed it to)
• Start sap.pl and care that it is started after each system reboot
