Multi-channel Memorandum Distribution Facility
MMDF
<messaging> (MMDF) An {electronic mail} system for Unix(?)
which is much easier to configure than {sendmail}. The source
is available.
MMDF is a versatile and configurable mail routing system
({MTA}) which also includes user interface programs ({MUA}).
It can be set up to route mail to different {domains} and
{hosts} over different channels (e.g. {SMTP}, {UUCP}). On
{UNIX} systems, its configuration begins with the
/usr/mmdf/mmdftailor file, which defines the machine and
domain names, various other configuration tables (alias,
domain, channel) and other configuration information.
