Hi Riaghan, welcome to Linux! :D There's quite a lot of documentation regarding mail server setup in the form of HOWTOs and guides, but most of these are in connection with some particular mail transport agent (MTA) implementation such as Postfix, Qmail, or Exim. The HOWTOs on The Linux Documentation Project[0] are one such resource. You can also do a Google search[1] on this. Actually, the hard part isn't in installing the mailserver software anymore (today its pretty much a matter of pulling from your distro's repository, but in RH9 you may have to set up build environment to make from source, if you can't get RPMs.) Mailservers vary in configuration tactics, so I would suggest choosing the one which bests suits you and helps you set up quickly and easily without compromising security.
