nullmailer(7)

✨ NAME ✨

nullmailer β€” okay bestie, this is the overview of nullmailer documentation πŸ’– it's the little map that tells you where all the other nullmailer manpages live, and ngl it's giving very "start here" energy πŸŽ€

(also hi, this is the nullmailer(7) page from the Miscellaneous Information Manual β€” section 7, we love a miscellaneous moment πŸ’…)


🌸 INTRODUCTION 🌸

nullmailer is a simple and secure relay-only mail transport agent. That's it, that's the whole vibe. Simple. Secure. Relay-only. Periodt. ✨

Now, the way messages get reformatted and injected into the queue? That whole saga is documented over in nullmailer-inject(1) πŸ“¬

And the way messages actually get inserted into the queue? That's nullmailer-queue(8), bestie 🫢

And the process of sending queued messages? Say less β€” that's nullmailer-send(8) πŸš€

okay so here's the moment you've been waiting for β€” the following table lists all the control files used by nullmailer. I'm giving it to you as a list because we're in our list era and honestly it hits different 🌈
