Information

"Server Browser Rules" are key-value string pairs defined server-side.

These values are automatically transmitted/announced/broadcasted by your MTA Server using the ASE (All-Seeing Eye) protocol, when queried on the ASE UDP Port (server port + 123).

This data is to be received and parsed by MTA Clients (in the Server Browser) to display the list of online MTA servers with custom information for each server.

Setting & Getting

These rules can be set in your MTA Server's configuration file (Server_mtaserver.conf) using the following XML format:

<rule name="NAME_HERE" value="VALUE_HERE"/>

They can also be defined and obtained using these two server-side functions:

Expected Values

The maximum amount of characters allowed in a rule value is 200.

The Server Browser looks for the following information (optional) provided by servers:
