Back to search · Project homepage

Description

MIMEDefang is a framework for filtering e-mail. It uses Sendmail's "Milter" API, some C glue code, and some Perl code to let you write high-performance mail filters in Perl. People use MIMEDefang to: - Block viruses - Block or tag spam - Remove HTML mail parts - Add boilerplate disclaimers to outgoing mail - Remove or alter attachments - Replace attachments with URL's - Implement sophisticated access controls. You're limited only by your imagination. If you can think of it and code it in Perl, you can do it with MIMEDefang.
