Installing the MaildropHost Product You will need Zope version 2.5.0 or higher! The maildrop daemon is not supported under Windows. First, you will need to unzip and untar the compressed surce file into a place where Zope can find it, namely the "Products" directory. $ cp MaildropHost-xyz.tgz /lib/python/Products $ cd /lib/python/Products $ tar zxvf MaildropHost-xyz.tgz Do not forget to restart Zope afterwards. You will find a file named "config.py" in the toplevel MaildropHost folder. This file contains all site-specific settings and you must edit it to suit your needs. IMPORTANT: Since this file is also sourced by a few shell scripts you must not put any whitespace around equal (=) signs! Startup scripts for the standalone maildrop daemon, which processes mail items generated by the MaildropHost Zope product, can be found inside the /maildrop/bin-folder. What these scripts do and how to use them is described in a separate README inside that folder. See README.txt for any other dependencies and requirements.
