qpsmtpd/STATUS
Steve Kemp 1002d0dd56 new plugin - check_bogus_bounce
The current status file, in git, has the following entry:

  -plugin to reject mails from <> if it has multiple recipients.

  I hereby submit my plugin to handle this case for possible inclusion,
 under the same terms as the current qpsmtpd release.

  The plugin is available here:

    http://www.steve.org.uk/Software/qpsmtpd/check_bogus_bounce/

  Please find patch against git head below, adding the file and removing
 the TODO line from the status file.

Roadmap
=======
- http://code.google.com/p/smtpd/issues
- Bugfixes - qpsmtpd is extremely stable (in production since 2001), but
there are always more things to fix.
- Add user configuration plugin infrastructure
- Add plugin API for checking if a local email address is valid
- Include the popular check_delivery[1] functionality via the user API
[1] until then get it from
http://www.openminddev.net/files/qpsmtpd/plugins/check_delivery/
- Add API to reject individual recipients after the RCPT has been
accepted and generate individual bounce messages.
Issues
======
See http://code.google.com/p/smtpd/issues/list
------ The rest of the list here might be outdated. ------
------ Patches to remove things are welcome. ------
add whitelist support to the dnsbl plugin (and maybe to the rhsbl
plugin too). Preferably both supporting DNS based whitelists and
filebased (CDB) ones.
plugin support;
allow plugins to return multiple response lines (does it have to
join them to one for SMTP?)
support plugins for the rest of the commands.
specify a priority in register_hook. ("LAST", "FIRST", "MIDDLE", or
maybe a number)
plugin access to the data line by line during the DATA phase
(instead of just after)
if qmail-queue can't be loaded we still return 250 ?!
Make a system for configuring the plugins per user/domain/...
support databytes per user / domain
localiphost - support foo@[a.b.c.d] addresses
Move dispatch() etc from SMTP.pm to Qpsmtpd.pm to allow other similar
protocols to use the qpsmtpd framework.
Future Ideas
============
Methods to create a bounce message easily; partly so we can accept a
mail for one user but bounce it right away for another RCPT'er.
The data_post hook should be able to put in the notes what addresses
should go through, bounce and get rejected respectively, and qpsmtpd
should just do the right thing. See also

David Carraway has some thoughts for "user filters"
