GExim
Exim
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.
