3.13.1 Using lmtpd with MeTA1.

MeTA1 (http://meta1.org) communicates with the delivery agent using LMTP.

The socket to listen for LMTP requests must be specified using the server statement (see Server Settings). For the purposes of this section, let’s suppose lmtpd will listen on a UNIX socket /var/spool/meta1/lmtpsock. Then, the following (minimal) lmtpd configuration will do the job:

# Run as daemon.
mode daemon;
# Switch to this group after startup.
group meta1c;
# Configure server:
server unix:///var/spool/meta1/lmtpsock {
  transcript no;
};

To configure MeTA1 to use this socket, add the following statement to the ‘smtpc’ section in /etc/meta1/meta1.conf:

  LMTP_socket="lmtpsock";
