Hello,

I am hoping you folks on the list could advise me on this...

Can QM Toaster be used to turn a default CentOS install into a very basic 
POP3/IMAP/SMTP email server?

Our current ISP where we host ~15 domains and ~25+ email accounts has a 
mandatory incoming "auto-discard" spam filter that is far too strict to 
continue using. 

Unfortunately, switching ISPs is not an option right now.

I am looking at signing up for a basic low-memory CentOS "Virtual Dedicated 
Server" to  handle our own incoming (& outgoing) mail.

There will not be a full-time IT person to maintain the server, so simplicity 
is a must.

I am perfectly fine with leaving out server-side spam filtering, though I 
suspect that some basic blacklist usage would be a good idea.   

Most specifically, I don't want to add the performance overhead, security 
liability, and maintenance requirements of a typical "default" server. (Apache, 
MySQL, Bind, etc.) 

Basically, I want an ultra-basic server that I can set for automatic updates 
and let it continue running "hands-off" until CentOS 4 is no longer supported 
with security patches.

Will Qmail Toaster do what I need?

Thank you for reading,
David
