in reply to Simple (but robust) email server (receiver)

I can heartily recommend Net::Server::Mail in conjunction with Net::Server::PreFork for this purpose. I've found this to be a very stable and performant solution (code I wrote for a client using this combination handles thousands of messages a second in production and runs stably without any need for maintenance apart from configuration).

Question though, are you really planning on storing the whole email in a database? There are seldom (IME) good reasons for doing that.

Update:Question answered :-)


All dogma is stupid.

    Thanks. And to answer your question - not exactly. The emails will be processed and only some results will be stored.
