Subject: please help me - newbie questions
> Hi folks,
>
> I'm new to this list and as well to qmail. I'm supposed to set up
> a mail-server for our company and I'm totally confused. My situation
> is as follows:
>
> We have am inernal net here with a Redhat Linux 6.2 Server. This server
> is our DNS, firewall and fileserver, all in one. The Server has two
> network cards, one with an internal address, say 192.168.1.3, and one
> with an official address say 24.3.19.73 - this is my birthday ;-)
> The server is connected to our ISP via DSL and the connection is always
> open. Now I have to set up qmail on this server and I just can't figure
> out how this should work. I have followed all the instructions in the
> source distribution to install and do the minmal configuration. The server
> shoud be named smtp.uscreen.de for smtp and mail, or pop3.uscreen.de
> for pop - or should I use IMAP - I don't know. All I know is that the
> server needs to be up and running on next monday.
>
> Can anyone direct me to a poit where there is a good description on how
> to set up qmail from scratch??? The information on
> http://qmail.mirrors.Space.Net/top.html
> weren't too helpfull. All I want to know is - where do I have to set up
> the mail servers forwarding the mails to other networks - for example if
> I'd want to send mail to this list from my workstation over our own
> mailserver; where can I configure the pop-accounts for incoming mail
> and so on.
