+E-MailRelay is a simple SMTP proxy and store-and-forward message transfer agent
+(MTA). When running as a proxy all e-mail messages can be passed through a
+user-defined program, such as a spam filter, which can drop, re-address or edit
+messages as they pass through. When running as a store-and-forward MTA incoming
+messages are stored in a local spool directory, and then forwarded to the next
+SMTP server on request.
