The Exim Home Page

Exim is a message transfer agent (MTA) developed at the University of Cambridge for use on Unix systems connected to the Internet. It is freely available under the terms of the GNU General Public Licence. In style it is similar to Smail - 3, but its facilities are more extensive, and in particular it - has some defences against mail bombs and unsolicited junk mail in - the form of options for refusing messages from particular hosts, - networks, or senders. It can be installed in place of sendmail, - although the configuration of exim is quite different to that of - sendmail.

+ 3, but its facilities are more general. There is a great deal + of flexibility in the way mail can be routed, and there are + extensive facilities for checking incoming mail. Exim can be + installed in place of sendmail, although the configuration of exim + is quite different to that of sendmail.

An expanded introduction is available.

Exim Course at Cambridge (UK)
