Bug#223695: ITP: swaks -- SMTP test tool



Package: wnpp
Version: N/A; reported 2003-12-11
Severity: wishlist

* Package name    : swaks
  Version         : 0+20031210.0
  Upstream Author : John Jetmore <jetmore@cinergycom.com>
* URL             : http://www.jetmore.org/john/code/#swaks
* License         : GPL
  Description     : SMTP command-line test tool
 swaks (Swiss Army Knife SMTP) is a command-line tool written in Perl
 for testing SMTP setups; it supports STARTTLS and SMTP AUTH (PLAIN,
 LOGIN, CRAM-MD5, SPA, and DIGEST-MD5). swaks allows to stop the SMTP
 dialog at any stage, e.g to check RCPT TO: without actually sending a
 mail.
 .
 If you are spending too much time iterating "telnet foo.example 25"
 swaks is for you.

There is a possible copyright thingy I need to ask on legal about (it
uses libnet-ssleay-perl while being GPL) before the upload.

This is semi RFP/ITP - I am not _very_ keen on maintaining the package
as my perl is rudimentary, but I use the package myself, John is
responsive and I think it would make a nice addition to Debian.
