This is the FreeBSD Ports Collection. For an easy to use WEB-based interface to it, please see: https://www.FreeBSD.org/ports For general information on the Ports Collection, please see the FreeBSD Handbook ports section which is available from: https://docs.freebsd.org/en/books/handbook/ports/ for the latest official version or: The ports(7) manual page (man ports). These will explain how to use ports and packages. If you would like to search for a port, you can do so easily by saying (in /usr/ports): make search name="<name>" or: make search key="<keyword>" which will generate a list of all ports matching <name> or <keyword>. make search also supports wildcards, such as: make search name="gtk*" For information about contributing to FreeBSD ports, please see the Porter's Handbook, available at: https://docs.freebsd.org/en/books/porters-handbook/ NOTE: This tree will GROW significantly in size during normal usage! The distribution tar files can and do accumulate in /usr/ports/distfiles, and the individual ports will also use up lots of space in their work subdirectories unless you remember to "make clean" after you're done building a given port. /usr/ports/distfiles can also be periodically cleaned without ill-effect.

nmh supports three mail transport methods: smtp, which submits email to
the submission port (587), sendmail/smtp, submitting SMTP to the MTA
through a pipe, and sendmail/pipe, submitting raw email to the MTA where
the MTA extracts the from and to headers from the email itself, using
sendmail -t.
The reason for this change is to support the upcoming 14-CURRENT
switchover from sendmail to dma (DragonflyBSD Mail Agent). The dma agent
only supports SMTP over port 25 and works well using sendmail -t while
all other transport methods do not work.
This change only affects new installs of nmh and nmh-devel. Users of
existing nmh installations who wish to use the new dma agent will need
to alter ${LOCALBASE}/etc/nmh/mts.conf by hand by changing the mts
statement to mts: sendmail/pipe. The existing file is not altered when
pkg upgrade is invoked. However users of sendmail in base, sendmail
port, postfix, exim, and qmail are not affected by this and may use
their existing mts.conf.
The dma agent is not currently installed by default but users may install
it by enabling MK_DMAGENT in src.conf and building/installing 14-CURRENT
world. This patch allows nmh to work with dma agent when it is installed
and made to be the default MTA in /etc/mail/mailer.conf.
