Method Details

init(self, host=`'127.0.0.1'`, port=8825)
(Constructor)

source code

Initializes to bind on the given port and host/ipaddress. Typically in deployment you'd give 0.0.0.0 for "all internet devices" but consult your operating system.

This uses smtpd.SMTPServer in the __init__, which means that you have to call this far after you use python-daemonize or else daemonize will close the socket.

Overrides: asyncore.dispatcher.__init__

start(self)

source code

Kicks everything into gear and starts listening on the port. This fires off threads and waits until they are done.

process_message(self, Peer, From, To, Data)

source code

Called by smtpd.SMTPServer when there's a message received.

Overrides: smtpd.SMTPServer.process_message

close(self)

source code

Doesn't do anything except log who called this, since nobody should. Ever.

Overrides: asyncore.dispatcher.close
