The default mailserver in Mandrake is postfix, and I highly recommend using it. You will also need to decide if you want imap access, especially if you want them to have access to some sort of webmail (pop3 works with some, but none that I would recommend :)). By simply installing standard 9.0/9.1, postfix and imap2002, setting your hostname and configuring your firewall to redirect smtp through to your postfix box, you should be up and running in no time. -- Live fast, die young, You're sucking up my bandwidth.
