XMail

XMail has been designed as a mail server solution for both Internet and Intranet. It sports support for SMTP, POP3, SMTP relay checking, spam protection, SMTP authentication and account and domain aliases.

Working with this tool and configuring it is not a simple task but the developer makes available sufficient documentation for getting you started, on any of the supported platforms.

Before using XMail make sure that all the requirements are fulfilled and a functional DNS and Internet gateway are available in case it is used as an Internet mail server.

XMail is not designed for the average Joe and configuring it in order to make the most of the features available require solid computer knowledge.

The task entails creating all the files necessary for the administration of the accounts and of the domains as well as making the server configuration.

This means that the user has to be comfortable working in the Command Prompt and familiar with the structure of a mail root folder and the files it hosts.

Moreover, editing the files inside enables a good overall configuration of the server, complete with security measures for each of the handled domains.

The tool is designed for advanced users such as administrators that are familiar with the terminology and the operations that need to be carried out for the mail server to function properly and securely.

XMail includes plenty of functionality and the source code can be compiled for multiple platforms.

The list of features makes available support for POP3 synchronization with an external POP3 account, custom mail processing and remote administration. It is not easy to set up but it provides flexibility and versatility.
