Nowadays you can use it over +any intermittently available links, e.g. wifi at a conference. +serialmail works with qmail: you use qmail to deliver messages to a +maildir, and then serialmail to deliver messages out of the maildir. + +serialmail supports SMTP, including ESMTP PIPELINING, and QMTP. |
