The qpsmtpd daemon, on the other hand, is written in pure Perl and can be customized easily. It consists of a core that implements a complete SMTP server, and a number of plug-ins that enhance the operations of the server. These plug-ins allow for the checking of recipients and senders, as well as virus scanning, spam checking, blocking lists (DNS and RHS), SMTP AUTH and TLS.

Specially formatted documentation headers are extracted from source files, reformatted in HTML, XML DocBook, TROFF, ASCII, LaTeX, PDF, or RTF, and stored in a different file.
