Acs
Mail
Lite
handles
sending
of
email
via
sendmail
or
smtp
and
includes
a
bounce
management
system
for
invalid
email
accounts
.
<
p
>
When
called
to
send
a
mail
,
the
mail
will
either
get
sent
immediately
or
placed
in
an
outgoing
queue
(
changeable
via
parameter
)
which
will
be
processed
every
few
minutes
.</

ACS
Mail
Lite
uses
either
sendmail
(
you
have
to
provide
the
location
of
the
binary
as
a
parameter
)
or
SMTP
to
send
the
mail
.
If
the
sending
fails
,
the
mail
will
be
placed
in
the
outgoing
queue
again
and
be
given
another
try
a
few
minutes
later
when
processing
the
queue
again
.</
p

<
p

Each
email
contains
an
X
-
Envelope
-
From
adress
constructed
as
follows
:<
br
>
The
adress
starts
with
"bounce"
(
can
be
changed
by
a
parameter
)
followed
by
the
user_id
,
a
hashkey
and
the
package_id
of
the
package
instance
that
sent
the
email
,
separated
by
"-"
.
The
domain
name
of
this
adress
can
be
changed
with
a
parameter
.</
p

p

The
system
checks
every
2
minutes
(
configurable
)
in
a
certain
maildirectory
(
configurable
)
for
newly
bounced
emails
,
so
the
mailsystem
will
have
to
place
every
mail
to
an
address
beginning
with
"bounce"
(
or
whatever
the
appropriate
parameter
says
)
in
that
directory
.
The
system
then
processes
each
of
the
bounced
emails
,
strips
out
the
message_id
and
verifies
the
hashkey
in
the
bounce
-
address
.
After
that
the
package
-
key
of
the
package
sending
the
original
mail
is
found
out
by
using
the
package_id
provided
in
the
bounce
adress
.
With
that
,
the
system
then
tries
to
invoke
a
callback
procedure
via
a
service
contract
if
one
is
registered
for
that
particular
package
-
key
.
This
enables
each
package
to
deal
with
bouncing
mails
on
their
own
-
probably
logging
this
in
special
tables
.
ACS
Mail
Lite
then
logs
the
event
of
a
bounced
mail
of
that
user
.</
p
>
<
p

Every
day
a
procedure
is
run
that
checks
if
an
email
account
has
to
be
disabled
from
receiving
any
more
mail
.
This
is
done
the
following
way
:</
p

<
ul

<
li

If
a
user
received
his
last
mail
X
days
ago
without
any
further
bounced
mail
then
his
bounce
-
record
gets
deleted
since
it
can
be
assumed
that
his
email
account
is
working
again
and
no
longer
refusing
emails
.
This
value
can
be
changed
with
the
parameter
"MaxDaysToBounce"
.</
li

If
more
then
Y
emails
were
returned
by
a
particular
user
then
his
email
account
gets
disabled
from
receiving
any
more
mails
from
the
system
by
setting
the
email_bouncing_p
flag
to
t
.
This
value
can
be
changed
with
the
parameter
"MaxBounceCount"

will
not
receive
any
more
mails
and
to
tell
them
how
to
reenable

a

Redirect
all
mail
to
"bounce"
(
if
you
leave
the
parameter
as
it
was
)
to
"nsadmin"
(
in

you
only
run

).</

In
case
of
multiple
services
on
one
system
,
create
a
bounce
email
for
each
of
them
(
e

g
.
changeing
"bounce"
to
"bounce_service1"
)
and
create
a
new
user
that
runs
the
aolserver
process
for
each
of
them
.
You
do
not
want
to
have
service1
deal
with
bounces
for
service2
