=head1 NAME
Mail::Milter::Authentication::Net::Milter - Local modified copy of Net::Milter
=head1 VERSION
version 3.20210514
=head1 SYNOPSIS
use Net::Milter;
my $milter = new Net::Milter;
$milter->open('127.0.0.1',5513,'tcp');
my ($milter_version,$returned_actions_ref,$returned_protocol_ref) =
$milter->protocol_negotiation();
my (@results) = $milter->send_header('From','martin@localhost');
foreach (@results) {
if ($$_{action} eq 'reject') {exit;}
}
Also see example in scripts directory.
=head1 DESCRIPTION
Perl module to provide a pure Perl implementation of the MTA part the
milter interface. The goal of this module is to allow other email
systems to easily integrate with the various email filters that accept
content via milter.
This implementation of milter is developed from the description provided
by Todd Vierling,
cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/pmilter/pmilter/doc/milter-protocol.txt?rev=1.2
and from examining the tcp output from Sendmail.
=head2 Attributes
=over
=item action_types
Reference to an array of the set of actions defined within Sendmail's milter code.
=item content_types
Reference to an array of the set of content types which may be witheld.
=back
=head2 Methods
=over
=item new
Constructor, creates a new blank Net::Milter object.
=item open
Open a socket to a milter filter. Takes three arguments, the last
argument, can be 'tcp' or 'unix' depending if the connection is to be
made to a TCP socket or through a UNIX file system socket. For TCP
sockets, the first two argument are the IP address and the port number;
for UNIX sockets the first argument is the file path, the second the
timeout value.
Accepted synonyms for tcp and unix are inet and local respecively.
e.g.
$milter->open('127.0.0.1',5513,'tcp');
to open a connection to port 5513 on address 127.0.0.1,
or
$milter->open('/tmp/file.sck',10,'unix');
to open a connection to /tmp/file.sck with a timeout of 10 seconds.
The method creates the attribute, 'socket' containing an IO::Handle
object.
=item protocol_negotiation
Talk to the milter filter, describing the list of actions it may
perform, and any email content that won't be sent.
Accepts as argument the hash of allowable actions and withheld content.
The hash keys are :
Allowable actions by the filter :
=over
=item SMFIF_ADDHDRS - Add message headers.
=item SMFIF_CHGBODY - Alter the message body.
=item SMFIF_ADDRCPT - Add recipients to the message.
=item SMFIF_DELRCPT - Delete recipients from the message.
=item SMFIF_CHGHDRS - Change or delete message headers.
=back
The default is to allow all actions, setting the value to be '0' of any
of these keys in the argument hash informs the filter not perform the
action.
e.g.
$milter->protocol_negotiation(
SMFIF_ADDHDRS => 0,
SMFIF_CHGBODY => 1
);
informs the filter it is able to change the contents of the message
body, but it may not add message headers.
Withheld content :
=over
=item SMFIP_NOCONNECT - Do not expect the connection details.
=item SMFIP_NOHELO - Do not expect the HELO string.
=item SMFIP_NOMAIL - Do not expect the MAIL FROM string.
=item SMFIP_NORCPT - Do not expect the RCPT TO string.
=item SMFIP_NOBODY - Do not expect the email body.
=item SMFIP_NOHDRS - Do not expect any email headers.
=item SMFIP_NOEOH - Do not expect an end of headers signal.
=back
The default is to inform the filter to expect everything, setting the
value of the key to '1' informs the filter to not expect the content.
e.g.
$milter->protocol_negotiation(
SMFIF_ADDHDRS => 0,
SMFIF_CHGBODY => 1,
SMFIP_NOEHO => 1,
SMFIP_NOCONNECT => 1
);
informs the filter it is able to change the contents of the message
body, but it may not add message headers, it will not receive an end
of headers signal, nor will it receive the connection details.
The method returns three parameters, the protocol version, an array
reference containing all the names of the actions the filter
understands it is able to perform, and an array reference
containing the names of the content it understands it won't be sent.
=item send_abort
Send an abort signal to the mail filter.
Accepts nothing, returns nothing.
=item send_body
Send the body of the email to the mail filter.
NOTE the filter will only accept up to 65535 bytes of body at a time.
Feed the body to the filter piece by piece by repeat calls to send_body
with each body chunk until all the body is sent.
Accepts the message body, returns reference to an array of return codes
(see RETURN CODE section).
=item send_end_body
Send an end of body signal, i.e. no more body information will
follow. Returns a reference to an array of return codes (see RETURN
CODE section).
=item send_connect
Send the SMTP connect information to the mail filter.
Accepts the hostname, the family ('unix' for file sockets, 'tcp4' for
tcp connections (v4), 'tcp6' for version 6 tcp connections), the sending
connection port, the IP address of the sender. Returns a reference to an
array of return codes (see RETURN CODE section).
e.g.
$milter->send_connect(
'host.domain',
'tcp4',
'12345',
'127.0.0.1'
);
The machine host.domain with IP address 127.0.0.1 connected to
us from port 12345 using TCP version 4.
=item send_helo
Send the HELO (or EHLO) string provided by the connecting computer.
Accepts the HELO string as an argument. Returns a reference to an array
of return codes (see RETURN CODE section).
=item send_header
Send a single header name and contents to the filter, accepts two
arguments, the header name and the header contents. Returns a reference
to an array of return codes (see RETURN CODE section).
=item send_mail_from
Send the MAIL FROM string to the filter, accepts the MAIL FROM data as
an argument. Returns a reference to an array of return codes (see
RETURN CODE section).
=item send_end_headers
Send an end of headers signal, i.e. no more header information will
follow. Returns a reference to an array of return codes (see RETURN
CODE section).
=item send_rcpt_to
Send the RCPT TO string to the filter, accepts an array of RCPT TO
recipients as argument. Returns a reference to an array of return
codes (see RETURN CODE section).
=item send_quit
Quit the milter communication, accepts nothing, returns nothing.
=item send_macros
Send Sendmail macro information to the filter. The method accepts a
hash of the Sendmail macro names, returns a reference to an array of
return codes (see RETURN CODE section).
The potential macro names (hash keys) are :
=over
=item _ - email address of the Sendmail user.
=item j - canonical hostname of the recipeint machine.
=item {daemon_name} - name of the daemon from DaemonPortOptions.
=item {if_name} - hostname of the incoming connection.
=item {if_addr} - IP address of the incoming connection.
=item {tls_version} - TLS/SSL version used for connection.
=item {cipher} - cipher suite used for the connection.
=item {cipher_bits} - keylength of the encryption algorith.
=item {cert_subject} - distinguished name of the presented certificate.
=item {cert_issuer} - name of the certificate authority.
=item i - queue ID.
=item {auth_type} - SMTP authentication mechanism.
=item {auth_authen} - client's authenticated username.
=item {auth_ssf} - keylength of encryption algorithm.
=item {auth_author} - authorization identity.
=item {mail_mailer} - mailer from SMTP MAIL command.
=item {mail_host} - host from SMTP MAIL command.
=item {mail_addr} - address from SMTP MAIL command.
=item {rcpt_mailer} - mailer from SMTP RCPT command.
=item {rcpt_host} - host from SMTP RCPT command.
=item {rcpt_addr} - address from SMTP RCPT command.

Yes I know most of this is redundant, since other methods repeat this
information, but this is what the spec says.
e.g.
$milter->send_macros(
mail_addr => '127.0.0.1',
mail_host => 'localhost',
rcpt_addr => '127.0.0.1',
rcpt_addr => 'postmaster@localhost.localdomain'
);

=head1 NAME
Net::Milter - Masquerade as the MTA to communicate with email
filters through a milter interface.
=head1 RETURN CODES
Many methods return an array of hash references. Each hash describes
one response from the filter, a filter may return more than one
response to any sent data, such as 'add a header','modify body',
'continue'.
The hash keys are :
=over
=item command - the response from the filter
=item explanation - verbose explanation of the required action
=item action - action to perform, may be I<add>, I<delete>, I<accept>, I<replace>, I<continue> or I<reject>
=item header - the name of header the action refers to (may be equal to 'body' to refer to the message body)
=item value - the value relating to the action
=back
=head1 TIPS
Call the various methods in the order that they would be called if accepting
a SMTP stream, ie send_connect(), send_helo(), send_mail_from(), send_rcpt_to(),
send_header(), send_end_headers(), send_body(). Some milter filters expect this
and refuse to return values when expected.
Equally continuing to send data when a filter has rejected or accepted a
message may confuse it, and refuse to return values for subsequent data, so
always check the codes returned.
In some circumstantes 'read' has not worked, now replaced by 'sysread' which is
reported to fix the problem. If this doesn't work, change 'sysread' to 'read' and
email me please.
Some filters appear to expect a bitwise negation of the protocol field. This is
now disabled as default. If you wish to enable this, please set
PROTOCOL_NEGATION => 1
=head1 SEE ALSO
This module is the Yang to Ying's Sendmail::Milter, which can act as the other end
of the communication.
=head1 NAMING
I choose not to put this module in the Sendmail namespace, as it has nothing to do
with Sendmail itself, neither is it anything to do with SMTP, its a net protocol,
hence the Net namespace.
