INTRODUCTION¶
qmail is a secure, reliable, efficient, simple message transfer agent.
Users who want to control incoming messages should read
dot-qmail(5).
Available commands for the
.qmail file include
qbiff(1),
qreceipt(1),
forward(1),
bouncesaying(1), and
condredirect(1). Other helpful commands include
maildirmake(1),

System administrators who want to control the entire
qmail system should
start with

queue-monitoring tools:
qmail-qread(8),
qmail-qstat(8), and
qmail-tcpto(8). Incoming SMTP connections are handled by
qmail-smtpd(8).
qmail offers two command-line message-sending interfaces:
qmail-inject(8) and
mailsubj(1). For background information on
Internet mail messages, see
