PowerDNS Mailhosting Technology
General - License - Debian
Introduction

Modern Mailhosting Technology
The PowerMail system is a modern, advanced and high performance mail storage and distribution tool. It is a complete solution for receiving email and allowing users to retrieve it from their mailboxes.

It is written from scratch and conforms to all relevant SMTP standards documents.

Two notable deployments are our own Express service and the DOT.TK setup. Both are powered by the PowerDNS Mailhosting technology.

Flexible Userbase Architecture
User information (passwords, quotas, mailforwarding) can be retrieved from many sources. Custom userbases can also be written to mate PowerMail with existing customer information directories (LDAP, /etc/passwd, NIS, MySQL etc).

The following backends are currently available and included in the release:

Database - The database backends talk directly to a database to answers retrieve user data. Backends for MySQL and PostgreSQL are included.

Text - Information can also be stored in a simple text file with a powerful syntax

License
The PowerDNS Nameserver is covered by our 'Unpaid License'. The complete text of the license can be viewed here.
