What is opt_extremail?

opt_extremail is an opt package for the Fli4L project. It installs a SMTP and POP3 server on the router which can then be used to send e-mail internally on the LAN and together with opt_fetchmail to receive e-mails from the Internet.

eXtremail, the used mail server, can also be configured to forward e-mails to the internet, but this is not covered in the instructions. Since I myself don't use it for this purpose I can't answer any questions regarding this.

This package requires a hard disk in the router. The installation process and configuration is fairly complex. This package is not meant for beginners.

Note: I am tired that some people, to whom I gave my software for free, are bitching about that it contains bugs, that I take too much time for providing updates or bugfixes or that I don't answer support requests or answer them arrogantly. Therefore I will, effective immediately, stop any support and further development. The packages will still be available for download as they currently exist, but I will no longer answer any emails, accept bug reports or even fix any bugs. There will be no adaptations to new versions of FlI4L unless I need them for myself, and in that latter case there will no updated documentation, if I make the updates available at all.
