DESCRIPTION

The mail toaster is a collection of open-source software which provides a full-featured mail server running on FreeBSD, Mac OS X, and Linux. The system is built around the qmail mail transport agent, with many additions and modifications. Matt Simerson is the primary author and maintainer of the toaster. There is an active and friendly community of toaster owners which supports the toaster on a mailing list and web forum.

The toaster is built around qmail, a robust mail transfer agent by Daniel J. Bernstein, and vpopmail, a virtual domain manager by Inter7 systems. Matt keeps up with releases of the core software, evaluates them, decides when they are stable, and then integrates them into the toaster. Matt has also added several patches which add functionality to these core programs.

A complete set of instructions for building a mail toaster are on the toaster install page. There is a substantial amount of documentation available for the "Mail::Toaster" toaster. Much of it is also readable via "perldoc Mail::Toaster", and the subsequent pages. Don't forget to read the Install, Configure, and FAQ pages on the web site. If you still have questions, there is a Web Forum and mailing list. Both are browseable and searchable for your convenience.

METHODS

all toaster_setup.pl -s all

a special target that tries to build the entire Mail::Toaster without any interaction from you. Unlike other targets, it will keep right on going when it encounters an error, getting as much built as it possibly can. It is presumed that the administrator is logging the output for later review. I use this target primarily in testing.
