Hi guys,
I'm a newbie to this email server things and some days ago I've
installed a postfix server just to send outgoing mail (relay) but now
I have to turn this server us incoming mail server to catch all
messages for us domain.
Well, I know I have to install courier-imap 'cause I want to use imap,
and will also need to be able to add other domains to this mail server
as I want.
Well, I'd took a look at
http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/virt-mail-howto.xml but it's a little bit
confusing since I had not ever did anything like that and that guide
spoke about things I not sure I need, like SSL.
So, what I want is to know what I really need to make my server catch
all messages incoming to the domains I'll specify at postfix
configuration, and also, how to specify that?
Well, the first thing to figure out is if you want to use mbox or
maildir style mailboxes. Then set up your postfix main.cf config just
like they show you in the virtual mail howto on Gentoo.org. Then, if you
need pop or imap, emerge something like uw-imap, courier-imap, or
dovecot to handle that. The configuration is quite easy. Search the
forums, as I know there are some good hints on there as well.
