This repository's pre-2026 history is the original SourceForge releases, reconstructed for provenance. Those baselines have known, unpatched issues. They are preserved as history, not as runnable production software.
- HTTP server — directory traversal. The 0.60 HTTP server does not fully normalize request paths, allowing traversal outside the served root. Reported historically, never patched in the original project. Fix tracked as post-import modernization work.
- General transport hardening. The code predates SPF/modern-TLS-era assumptions. Request parsing was not fuzzed. Treat every server as network-untrusted surface until the modernization pass lands.
For issues in the modernized code, open a GitHub issue (or, for anything sensitive, contact the maintainer privately before public disclosure).
A sibling historical project, eemailer, is intentionally not revived: its
pre-SPF open SMTP auto-resolve behaviour made it abusable as a spam relay. It
remains an archive-only museum piece, never a runnable tool. Same principle
applies here — history is preserved with warnings, not resurrected blind.
