List of mail server software

 This is a list of mail server software: mail transfer agents, mail delivery agents, and other computer software which provide e-mail.

Product statistics[edit]

All such figures are necessarily estimates because data about mail server share is difficult to obtain; there are few reliable primary sources—and no agreed methodologies for its collection.

Surveys probing Internet-exposed systems typically attempt to identify systems via their banner, or other identifying features;[1] and report Postfix and exim as overwhelming leaders in March 2021, with greater than 92% share between them.[1]

Internet Message Access Protocol

  In computing, the   Internet Message Access Protocol   ( IMAP ) is an   Internet standard   protocol   used by   email clients   to retrieve   email   messages from a   mail server   over a   TCP/IP   connection. [2]   IMAP is defined by   RFC   9051 . IMAP was designed with the goal of permitting complete management of an  email box  by multiple email clients, therefore clients generally leave messages on the server until the user explicitly deletes them. An IMAP server typically listens on  port number  143. IMAP over  SSL/TLS  ( IMAPS ) is assigned the port number 993.
