129881SericThis directory contains the source files for sendmail.
135369Seric
149881SericFor installation instructions, please read the document ../doc/op.me:
155369Seric
169881Seric	nroff -me ../doc/op.me

189881SericThe following list describes the files in this directory:
195369Seric
209881SericMakefile	The makefile used here; this is created from
219881Seric		makefile.m4.
229881SericMakefile.m4	A makefile template.
235369SericREAD_ME		This file.
245369SericTODO		New features to be put in (maybe) at some time.
255369SericVersion.c	The version number and information about this
265369Seric		version of sendmail.  Theoretically, this gets
275369Seric		modified on every change.
285369Sericalias.c		Does name aliasing in all forms.
299881Sericarpadate.c	A subroutine which creates ARPANET standard dates.
305369Sericbmove.c		A core-to-core move.  This is in a separate file
315369Seric		because it can easily be replaced by a blindingly
325369Seric		efficient version on Vaxes.
339881Sericbmove.*.s	Versions of bmove optimized for specific processors.
349881Sericclock.c		Routines to implement real-time oriented functions
359881Seric		in sendmail -- e.g., timeouts.
365369Sericcollect.c	The routine that actually reads the mail into a temp
375369Seric		file.  It also does a certain amount of parsing of
385369Seric		the header, etc.
395369Sericconf.c		The configuration file.  This contains information
405369Seric		that is presumed to be quite static and non-
415369Seric		controversial, or code compiled in for efficiency
425369Seric		reasons.  Most of the configuration is in sendmail.cf.
439881Sericconf.h		Configuration that must be known everywhere.
445369Sericconvtime.c	A routine to sanely process times.
459881Sericdaemon.c	Routines to implement daemon mode.  This version is
469881Seric		specifically for Berkeley 4.1 IPC.
475369Sericdeliver.c	Routines to deliver mail.
485369Sericerr.c		Routines to print error messages.
499881Sericenvelope.c	Routines to manipulate the envelope structure.
505369Sericheaders.c	Routines to process message headers.
515369Sericmacro.c		The macro expander.  This is used internally to
525369Seric		insert information from the configuration file.
535369Sericmain.c		The main routine to sendmail.  This file also
545369Seric		contains some miscellaneous routines.
559881Sericparseaddr.c	The routines which do address parsing.
565369Sericqueue.c		Routines to implement message queueing.
575369Sericreadcf.c	The routine that reads the configuration file and
585369Seric		translates it to internal form.
599881Sericrecipient.c	Routines that manipulate the recipient list.
605369Sericsavemail.c	Routines which save the letter on processing errors.
615369Sericsendmail.h	Main header file for sendmail.
625369Sericsrvrsmtp.c	Routines to implement server SMTP.
635369Sericstab.c		Routines to manage the symbol table.
645369Sericstats.c		Routines to collect and post the statistics.
655369Sericsysexits.c	List of error messages associated with error codes
665369Seric		in sysexits.h.
679881Serictrace.c		The trace package.  These routines allow setting and
689881Seric		testing of trace flags with a high granularity.
699881Serictrace.h		Definitions needed for the trace package.
705369Sericusersmtp.c	Routines to implement user SMTP.
715369Sericutil.c		Some general purpose routines used by sendmail.
725369Sericversion.c	A master file for Version.c -- it may not exist in
735369Seric		your distribution.
