Version history:

MERCURY MTA FOR NOVELL NLM (MERCURY/NLM)

Current version: 1.49

This version can be used for Novell Netware 3.x, 4.x, 5.x and 6.x in Bindery and NDS mode.

Please note:
  • We strongly advise you NOT to use older versions as the integration with NDS might give problems, specifically the 1.44 version.
  • The development for the NLM version has stopped. We strongly advise you to switch to the /32 version. Novell integration in that version is much better and the /32 version is under full development, with anti-spam and new modules like IMAP4 and Web-based subscription for mailing lists.

GENERAL MERCURY INFORMATION, UTILITIES and FAQ's

  • One of the most wanted features in Mercury and Pegasus Mail, Content Control and Spamhalter spam handling. Read all about it.

  • Mercury/32 uses a "Queue Information File" (name.QIF), to store the information needed to process a message. A description can be found here (added 13-Mar-2005)

  • You can find all detailed changes of the program on the Mercury's features page.

  • One of the Mercury beta testers has created a utility that might help to convert Mercury/nlm list membership files to the new format used by Mercury/32 starting at version 3.21. The name is BUILDMLF and it will convert .LIS files to .MLF files and maintain the digest settings from the old list to the new. There are many more utils that can be used on http://mysite.verizon.net/jameshaley/pmail/

  • David Kocmoud, senior beta tester of Mercury and Pegasus Mail, has written some FAQ's on conversion from Novell 3.x to 4/5 and from Bindery to NDS. Both FAQ's can be found here.

  • Information about the processing order of messages that come through Mercury/32 can be found here.

  • Some helper utilities for Mercury/32 at http://www.alahele.de/projects/. Like MercUp, MercUpW, VirPol, MercStop and MercSign. Check them out.
