We can send and received with a <> "mail from", which is explicitly allowed.
Internally, we use "<>" to represent it. This requires special-casing in a
couple of places, but makes sure the handling is explicit, and we don't
accidentally confuse it with not having a source address.
This patch fixes some inconsistencies with this handling.
This patch makes the queue and couriers distinguish between permanent and
transient errors when delivering mail to individual recipients.
Pipe delivery errors are always permanent.
Procmail delivery errors are almost always permanent, except if the command
exited with code 75, which is an indication of transient.
SMTP delivery errors are almost always transient, except if the DNS resolution
for the domain failed.
This patch adds a new test which makes chasquid send and receive email to/from
Exim.
To make it work we need to add two testing flags to the SMTP courier, which is
not ideal but doesn't muddle the code much.
The test is not very portable, and assumes an exim binary is available, but
does not have to be installed in the system. It includes a helper script to
fetch one from the Debian archives.
This patch introduces an "envelope" package which, for now, provides simple
utilities for getting the user and domain of an address.
It also changes the couriers to use it (but other implementations remain, will
be moved over in subsequent patches).
This patch introduces the couriers, which the queue uses to deliver mail.
We have a local courier (using procmail), a remote courier (uses SMTP), and a
router courier that decides which of the two to use based on a list of local
domains.
There are still a few things pending, but they all have their basic
functionality working and tested.
