List of mail server software

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

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] As of December 2023, Postfix and exim appeared to be the overwhelming leaders in mail server types, with greater than 92% share between them, having come to prominence before 2010 in each case.[1][a] While such methods are effective at identifying mail server share for receiving systems, most large-scale sending environments are not listening for traffic on the public internet and will not be counted using such methodologies.
