AMaViS-ng 0.1.6.6
=================

AMaViS-ng is a rewrite of amavis-perl/amavisd.

What is different from amavisd/amavis-perl
------------------------------------------
* No build-time configuration. All configuration is done at runtime
  via a INI-style configuration file.

* The parts of AMaViS-ng are built as Perl modules with well-defined
  interfaces. This will hopefully make it easier to extend it.

* Module for running AMaViS as an SMTP gateway. This should make it
  possible to integrate it into virtually every MTA setup. The idea
  for this comes from Rainer Link's experimental amavisd-smtp.

* "PMilter" Module for Milter integration, using Todd Vierling's
  PMilter (<http://duh.org/pmilter/>) instead of an external helper
  program.

* External programs are only used where absolutely necessary,
  resulting in a lower load.

* A setup for Exim with embedded Perl is supported. In this case,
  AMaViS runs inside the Exim process.

* Resource limits on the size and number of unpacked files can be
  configured to prevent mailbombs from hosing the mail server.

* Integration into Courier-MTA is supported.
