Hi all,
Was looking for some comments on two things...


Number one, I was wondering if anyone has put together (or knows of)
'plug-n-play' email hosting solutions?

I'm thinking of something quite complete like:

qmail/postfix/sendmail + [ procmail ] + courier / cyrus / uw / other?
plus...
virtual domains + web admin (qmailadmin?) + web email (IMP?)



Number two, correct me if I'm wrong but, there are two ways to do 'virtual
domain' hosting (retrieval) of email. (I'm not talking about the delivery
-- MTA -- part. Yup, I should send this part to another more appropriate
list. ;-P )

1.  IP based
    Mail server gets multiple IP addresses, IMAP or POP looks up different
    accounts depending on IP address... blah blah.

2.  Name mapping based
    User email addresses are mapped to different accounts, therefore, IMAP
    or POP don't do anything special.
    [EMAIL PROTECTED]    -> jdoe-first
    [EMAIL PROTECTED]   -> jdoe-second


Cheers,
Ben.
