💖 sagator — like, the manual page, bestie 💖

okay so this is sagator(8) from the SAGATOR gang, and it's genuinely one of my faves, no cap. sit down, grab a lil snack 🍓, and let me tell you everything ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

sagator — an email/web antivirus/antispam gateway. she's giving gatekeeper but make it ✨security✨ 💅

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

sagator [--help] [--config filename] [--nodaemon] [--logfile logfilename] [--debug level]

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

okay so this program? it's an email/web antivirus/antispam gateway. it's literally an interface to postfix, sendmail (or honestly any other smtpd you vibe with), and what it does is run antivirus and/or spamchecker on stuff. 🛡️

it can also be used as an http proxy with filtering abilities, which is highkey iconic of it.

and the modular architecture?? obsessed. it can use any combination of antivirus/spamchecker according to configuration. mix and match, main character energy, you decide 💜

💅 OPTIONS 💅

  • -h, --help — displays a short help text. cute, quick, does what it says 🎀
  • -c, --config=filename — loads filename as an alternate config. important: this filename must be without the .py extension. like, do not add it. i'm serious 🙈
  • -n, --nodaemon — don't fork into background after startup. also, it implicitly sets logfile to stdout. you can change this as the next parameter after --nodaemon 🧚
  • -l, --logfile=logfilename — filename to store logs. if it's set to -, standard output will be used 📝
  • --debug=level — set debug level to level. you can specify a level from 0 to 9. levels over 9 are dangerous — please do not use them if you do not know what you are doing. like bestie i'm begging you 😭💀
  • --test — test configuration and exit. a lil vibe check before the real thing ✅
  • --kill — kill all processes and wait for pid file removation 💀
  • --wait — wait for pid file removation ⏳
