Description
The relay restrictions have been entirely reimagined to feature a more user-friendly interface that allows for enhanced control over relay security measures. Additionally, EIMS introduces its own Domain Name Resolver (DNR), designed to address issues present in the Open Transport DNR and to improve performance compared to the OS X DNR, although it currently lacks support for non-recursive DNS configurations. Furthermore, a new SMTP Submit port has been added, operating on TCP port 587 by default, mirroring the functionality of the standard SMTP port; this is particularly beneficial for clients whose ISPs restrict access to port 25. An option to set a maximum number of recipients per message has been incorporated, and the previously mandatory Expand SMTP Addresses feature can now be disabled, a change from EIMS versions 3.1 and earlier where it was always enabled. In addition, the SMTP server on both ports 25 and 587 is now equipped to log Telnet connections and recognize activities resembling port scans, enhancing security monitoring capabilities. Overall, these updates aim to provide users with greater flexibility and security when managing their email services.
Description
Exim serves as a mail transfer agent (MTA) for Unix-like operating systems. Initially developed by Philip Hazel in 1995 for the University of Cambridge Computing Service's email systems, Exim is released under the GPL, allowing users to freely download, utilize, and modify it. While it shares some similarities with Smail 3, Exim has evolved to offer greater user-friendliness and flexibility. Both Exim and Smail 3 operate on the Sendmail design model, where a single main binary manages all MTA functionalities. Although this monolithic architecture is sometimes viewed as less secure and slower, Exim boasts a superior security record compared to Sendmail and matches the performance of Qmail and Postfix, particularly in advanced functions like queue management, address routing, and testing. Notably, Exim lacks a built-in Graphical User Interface (GUI) for configuration, although some Linux distributions may provide one, enhancing its accessibility for users who prefer a visual approach. As a result, Exim remains a versatile choice for those looking to manage email systems effectively.
