## @package milter
#
# A thin wrapper around libmilter.
#

## Hold context for a milter connection.
# Each connection to sendmail creates a new <code>SMFICTX</code> struct within
# libmilter.  The milter module in turn creates a milterContext
# tied to the <code>SMFICTX</code> struct via <code>smfi_setpriv</code>
# to hold a PyThreadState and a user defined Python object for the connection.
# 
# Most application interaction with libmilter takes places via 
# the milterContext object for the connection.  It is passed to
# callback functions as the first parameter.
#
# The <code>Milter</code> module creates a python class for each connection,
# and converts function callbacks to instance method invocations.

## Register python milter with libmilter.
# The name we pass is used to identify the milter in the MTA configuration.
# Callback functions must be set using the set_*_callback() functions before
# registering the milter.
# Three additional callbacks are specified as keyword parameters.  These
# were added by recent versions of libmilter.  The keyword parameters is
# a nicer way to do it, I think, since it makes clear that you have to do
# it before registering.  I may move all the callbacks 
# in the future (perhaps keeping the set functions for compatibility).
# @param name the milter name by which the MTA finds us
# @param negotiate the
#       <a href="https://www.milter.org/developers/api/xxfi_negotiate">

#       actions, callbacks, and protocol steps.
# @param unknown the
#       <a href="https://www.milter.org/developers/api/xxfi_unknown">
#       xxfi_unknown</a> callback, called when for SMTP commands
#       not recognized by the MTA. (Extend SMTP in your milter!)
# @param data the
#       <a href="https://www.milter.org/developers/api/xxfi_data">

# The MTA can communicate with the milter by means of a
# unix, inet, or inet6 socket. By default, a unix domain socket

# and sendmail will throw warnings if, eg, the file is under a
# group or world writable directory.
