I have a number of issues with qpsmtpd as it stands at the moment. Maybe you could comment on my problems.
1. Plugins should be easy to debug from a test harness. Is there a way to do this? You can run the perl debugger, but once you start debugging the eval'ed code, perl just says that it won't show you the code. (I am using perl 5.008). So I am looking for a way to see what is happening in the plugins.
2. Some email users will want to receive all email. So a white list would be needed for RCPT. The problem is that this comes after mail has been rejected by the mail hook. White lists are also needed for senders.
3. Why does check_relay have to be last?
4. When I have tried using qpsmtpd in the past, users get error messages, and it is not at all obvious which plugin rejected the email.
5. When a mail cannot be delivered it sometimes takes the (legitimate) sender 5 days to receive the rejection. In business this is very hard to justify. Is it possible to ensure that the user receives the rejection immediately?
6. What is the difference between DENYSOFT and DENY?
