15 This document is targeted for \masqmail\ users and for people interested in mail systems in general. Security problems in electronic mail, \unix\ and the \NAME{C} programming language will also be discussed. Additional ones planning to take over an unmaintained software project will find real life experience in here.

17 In each topic, basic knowledge is %FIXME: vorrausgesetzt

18 . Nevertheless introductions are given and sources for further reading will be mentioned.

20 This work focuses on the \unix\ operating system. Experience in usage, administration and program development is assumed. This includes the basic toolchain (e.g. \name{tar}, \name{grep}, etc.), user, file and permission management, as well as writing, compiling and installing programs written in the \NAME{C} language.

22 General information about \unix\ can be found in %FIXME: references

23 . %FIXME: references
