Sorry about unclear description. iRedMail is just shell scripts, it will install and configure mail server related components automatically for you. That's why i call it a 'solution' instead of a 'software'. Source code of iRedMail is available in Google Code: http://code.google.com/p/iredmail/source/list Used major components: - Postfix (SMTP) - Dovecot (POP3, IMAP, Managesieve) - Apache (Web server) - MySQL (Storing application data and/or mail accounts) - OpenLDAP (Storing mail accounts) - Amavisd + SpamAssassin + ClamAV (anti-spam, anti-virus) - Roundcube (Webmail) - Awstats (Apache and Postfix log analyzer) Since RHEL doesn't provide all of them, iRedMail project has to provide some of them. As we mentioned in README[1] file under yum repository directory, most of them comes from third-party repositories, some were packed by iRedMail project, SRPMS are avalable: #### Most packages come from: - Dag Wieers: http://packages.sw.be/ - EPEL: http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/ - ATrpms.net: http://atrpms.net/ Thank you all :) Packages which contains 'ired' tag in package name are packed by iRedMail project, you can find source RPM here: http://iredmail.org/yum/srpms/ #### iRedMail will verify packages with command 'md5sum'[2] after downloaded to make sure they're truly downloaded from iredmail.org. [1] README: http://iredmail.org/yum/rpms/5/00README [2] Verify packages with 'md5sum': it's defined in some files: o iRedMail-x.y.z/pkgs/get_all.sh o iRedMail-x.y.z/pkgs/MD5.* ---- Zhang Huangbin iRedMail: Open Source Mail Server Solution for Red Hat Enterprise Linux, CentOS, Debian, Ubuntu, openSUSE, FreeBSD: http://www.iredmail.org/
