Sendmail
  • Popular mail server program on UNIX computers.
  • n. The standard UNIX mail agent; written by Eric Allman. It is very flexible, but has very hairy configuration syntax and has had numerous security bugs, because it's a large, monolithic program which needs to run with suid root privileges. See also bug-of-the-month club and Great Worm, The.
