smtp

Description

smtp is a collection of parser combinators and state machine primitives for the grammar defined in RFC 5321 (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol).

Data Types for SMTP Commands

 
 
(define-datatype cmd cmd?
 (Helo (s string?))
 (Ehlo (s string?))
 (MailFrom (m mailbox?) (parameters list?))
 (RcptTo   (m mailbox?) (parameters list?))
 (Data)
 (Rset)
 (Send  (m mailbox?))
 (Soml  (m mailbox?))
 (Saml  (m mailbox?))
 (Vrfy  (s string?))
 (Expn  (s string?))
 (Help  (s string?))
 (Noop)
 (Quit)
 (Turn)
 (WrongArg (cmd string?)  (message string?)))


(define-datatype mailbox mailbox?
  (Mailbox (local-part string?) 
    (domain string?)))

Data Types for SMTP Replies 

 (define-datatype reply reply?
  (Reply (code code?) (msg list?)))

(define-enumerated-type 
  success-code success-code? success-vector 
  success-code-inject success-code-project 
  (Unused)
  (PreliminarySuccess)
  (Success)
  (IntermediateSuccess)
  (TransientFailure)
  (PermanentFailure))

(define-enumerated-type 
  category category? category-vector
  category-inject category-project
  (Syntax)
  (Information)
  (Connection)
  (Unspecified3)
  (Unspecified4)
  (MailSystem))

(define-datatype code code?
  (Code (suc success-code?) (cat category?) (num integer?)))

An SMTP reply is a three-digit return code plus comments. This is what the list of strings is for; one string per line in the reply. the record printer will ppend an CRLF end-of-line marker to each entry in that list, so that the resulting string is ready to be sent back to the peer.

For example:

> (print (Reply (Code (Success) (MailSystem) 0)
                    (list "worked" "like" "a charm")))
250-worked
250-like
250 a charm

Command Parsers

 
(define (parse-cmd cont)

ESMTP State Machine

 
start-session session-fsm?

(define-datatype session-state session-state?
  (Unknown)
  (HaveHelo)
  (HaveMailFrom)
  (HaveRcptTo)
  (HaveData)
  (HaveQuit))

(define-datatype event event?
  (SayHelo       (s string?))
  (SayHeloAgain  (s string?))
  (SayEhlo       (s string?))
  (SayEhloAgain  (s string?))
  (SetMailFrom   (m mailbox?) (parameters? list))
  (AddRcptTo     (m mailbox?) (parameters? list))
  (StartData)
  (NeedHeloFirst)
  (NeedMailFromFirst)
  (NeedRcptToFirst)
  (NotImplemented) ;; Turn, Send, Soml, Saml, Vrfy, Expn.
  (ResetState)
  (SayOK)
  (SeeksHelp    (s string?))
  (Shutdown)
  (SyntaxErrorIn (s string?))
  (Unrecognized  (s string?)))
