        About
        =====
        
        `slimta` is a configurable MTA based on the `python-slimta` libraries. While
        the purpose of the `python-slimta` library is to avoid configuration files and
        allow full control via Python code, the `slimta` project recognizes that not
        everyone will want or need that level of control. Setup, configuration, and
        execution of `slimta` is designed to be familiar to non-programmers.
        
        The `slimta` project is released under the [MIT License][3].
        
        Getting Started
        ===============
        
        Install `slimta` from [PyPi][4]:
        
        ```console
        $ pip install slimta
        ```
        
        Pip should pull in all the required dependencies. Next, we create the basic
        configuration files:
        
        ```console
        $ slimta-setup config
        ```
        
        This creates 3 files, in `~/.slimta/` or wherever you specified. The sample
        configs are designed to work out of the box, so lets give it a shot:
        
        ```console
        $ slimta --no-daemon
        ```
        
        In another terminal, let's connect to port 1025 to see if it's working. After
        the banner (the line beginning with `220 `), type in `QUIT` to end the session:
        
        ```console
        $ telnet localhost 1025
        Trying 127.0.0.1...
        Connected to localhost.
        Escape character is '^]'.
        220 localhost.localdomain ESMTP example.com Mail Delivery Agent
        QUIT
        221 2.0.0 Bye
        Connection closed by foreign host.
        ```
        
        Port 1025 is fully capable of accepting mail in the SMTP session, but is
        configured by default with the `blackhole` relay to silently discard messages.
        You can also try it out with the built-in Python SMTP libraries:
        
        ```pycon
        >>> import smtplib
        >>> smtplib.SMTP('localhost', 1025).sendmail('test@example.com',
                                                     ['postmaster@example.com'],
                                                     'test message')
        ```
        
        At this point, we're still a little ways off from where you'd probably like to
        be: actually sending and receiving email to the Internet. Please check out the
        [Usage Manual][2] for information on configuring `slimta` to your liking,
        including more advanced and custom setups.
