MailDropHost replaces the built-in MailHost object. The advantage is that sending mail from within web pages becomes much faster because invoking the mail machinery can be slow. With Maildrop Host the web page will return immediately.

The Maildrop Host product provides support for sending email from within the Zope environment using Maildrop Host objects. Unlike the built-in MailHost object, the sending is done asynchronously from a separate process.

The advantage is that sending mail from within web pages becomes much faster because invoking the mail machinery can be slow. With Maildrop Host the web page will return immediately.

Maildrop Host uses a separate Python process to monitor the mail spool inside the product and handle mail in intervals that can be set by the administrator. There is a separate start script included with the product which can be used to start this monitor process.

Mails that cannot be sent successfully stay in the internal spool. Every attempt to send email is logged to a log file kept by the monitor process.
