Deploy this app to Linode with a free $100 credit!
vSMTP is a next-gen Mail Transfer Agent (MTA), faster, safer and greener.
While optimizing IT resources becomes an increasing challenge, computer attacks remain a constant problem.
Every day, over 300 billion emails are sent and received in the world. Billions of attachments are processed, analyzed and delivered, contributing to the increase in greenhouse gas emissions.
To meet these challenges, viridIT is developing a new technology of email gateways, also called vSMTP.

vSMTP enable you to create complex set of rules to filter your emails using vSMTP's scripting language (vsl) based on Rhai. You can:
and much more.
// -- /etc/vsmtp/service/database.vsl
// vSMTP can be extended with plugins.
import "plugins/vsmtp_plugin_mysql" as mysql;
// Here we declare a service.
// Let's connect to a mysql database.
export const database = mysql::connect(#{
// the url to connect to the database.
url: "mysql://localhost/?user=greylist-manager&password=my-password"",
timeout: "30s",
connections: 4,
});
// -- /etc/vsmtp/filter.vsl
// Here we declare our rules for filtering.
import "service/database" as db;
#{
// hook on the 'mail from' stage. (when the server receives the `MAIL FROM:` command)
mail: [
rule "greylist" || {
let sender = ctx::mail_from();
// is the user in our greylist ?
// (Don't forget to sanitize your inputs to prevent SQL injection)
if db::greylist.query(`SELECT * FROM greylist.sender WHERE address = '${sender}';`).is_empty() {
// it does not, we add the address to the database, then deny the email.
db::greylist.query(`
INSERT INTO greylist.sender (user, domain, address)
values ("${sender.local_part}", "${sender.domain}", "${sender}");
`);
// close the connection with a built in "451 - 4.7.1" error code.
state::deny(code::c451_7_1())
} else {
// it is, we accept the email.
state::accept()
}
}
],
}

Comparison between Postfix 3.6.4 & vSMTP 1.0.1 performances, performed on a Ubuntu 22.04 LTS running with an AMD Ryzen 5 5600X 6-Core Processor.
Check out the "hold" benchmark readme to reproduce the above example, and the benchmarks readme to try other benchmarks.
In this repository, the "develop" branch is the branch that we work on every day to provide new features. If you want to check examples for the latest vSMTP versions, switch to the "main" branch, where our latest releases are delivered.
For documentation please consult the vBook, the online reference and user guide for vSMTP. Documentation for the "develop" branch is also available in the vBook at https://vsmtp.rs/next
