I'm no longer supporting this module at this time. I will accept pull requests for fixes, but I'm no longer actively working on this project (and haven't for quite some time). I haven't maintained mail servers in about 8 years (at the time of this addition), and therefore I don't have a great way of testing this module. Again, I will continue to take pull requests for changes for this.
As of 2.0, this is Python 3 only. You can manually pick an older commit for Python 2, but you really shouldn't be using Python 2 as it EOL years ago.
-
If you have a .tar.gz, extract that first.
tar -xvzf python-libmilter*.tar.gz
-
Now, just cd into the directory and install it
cd python-libmilter* python setup.py install
That's it, that will install the the libmilter.py file into its proper place. Do note that you can just drop libmilter.py into your project folder and use it that way too. The whole point of this project is to maximize portability.
You can also install libmilter (python 2 version) using pip or easy_install
pip install python-libmilter
See the basic ForkFactory example in the "examples" directory.
Please see my wiki site for all the documentation on this library.
Edit the main.cf configuration file with the following parameters and values:
milter_default_action = accept
smtpd_milters = inet:127.0.0.1:5000
non_smtpd_milters = inet:127.0.0.1:5000
milter_protocol = 6
milter_mail_macros = i {mail_addr} {client_addr} {client_name} {auth_authen} {auth_type}
Please open a ticket on github if you encounter any issues or you have feature requests.
Please use the the "fork" and "pull request" mechanisms built into Github if you wish to contribute code to the project.
