meillo@166 5
meillo@154 6 \masqmail\ is a \mta\ for workstations and small networks. It is a drop-in replacement for \sendmail, but much smaller.
meillo@154 7
meillo@154 8 This diploma thesis analyzes the structure and concepts of \masqmail, and its security and safety.
meillo@154 9 Based on this knowledge, the source code will get improved and everything will be written down for documentation.
meillo@154 10
meillo@154 11 After successful tests in a real environment, a new version of \masqmail\ will be released and it will be packaged for the \gnulinux\ Distribution \debian.

meillo@207 28 This document was typeset in Palatino and Computer Modern font, using the LaTeX document preparation system on machines running the Debian GNU/Linux operating system. Text editing was done with Vim. The PIC language and troff were used to generate the diagrams, in exception of figure \ref{fig:masqmail-arch} which was produced with Egypt and GraphVis. Mercurial was chosen for version control. Further programs and scripts were used for minor tasks---it was all Free Software, though.
