Hectane Alternatives
Hectane is described as 'Lightweight, cross-platform SMTP client' and is an app in the Office & Productivity category. There are six alternatives to Hectane for Linux, Mac, Windows, BSD and Self-Hosted solutions. The best alternative is Postfix, which is both free and Open Source. Other great apps like Hectane are Exim (Free, Open Source), sSMTP (Free, Open Source), Sendmail (Free, Open Source) and Courier-MTA (Free, Open Source).
- Postfix is a mail transfer agent (MTA) that routes and delivers electronic mail. It attempts to be fast, easy to administer, and secure. The software is also known by its former names VMailer and IBM Secure Mailer.
- sSMTP is a simple MTA to deliver mail from a computer to a mail server. sSMTP is simple and lightweight, there are no daemons or anything hogging up CPU; Just sSMTP. Unlike Exim4, sSMTP does not receive mail, expand aliases, or manage a queue.
