Hi,

how about controlling EXIM via a RESTful API with JSON? Are there tools like this?

Regards
Thomas

Thanks for sharing Marcin. How GREAT would it be to have a sort of suite
to manage every single aspect of EXIM to configure it from there. It is
amazing that being Exim so powerful and succesful noboy until today came
out ever with such a tool.

But this ctl is wonderful. Will try it in Linux and will feed you back.


Regards.
