Depends on what you consider a complete server. Mail is being sent/received only via SMTP, which is handled entirely by postfix. This means it is quite possible to run a mail server with postfix alone. However, you probably want users to be able to access the received mail without logging in on the mail server (as a matter of policy or convenience or both). Because of this you need dovecot and roundcube. Spamassasin and clamav are needed for spam and virus filtering, which would not make sense to integrate in a mail transport agent. Postfixadmin is just for your convenience.

Re: mail server
Muhammad Yousuf Khan: btw i have a question in my mind . postfix is mail server. but the question raising in my mind if postfix is the complete server then why we have to add several other tools like mentioned above (dovecot,spamassassin etc) ? When Unix/Linux people talk about mail servers, they usually mean MTAs (mail transport agents). That's the software that talks SMTP and moves mail between systems, e.g. from your mail host to the mail server of your recipient and vice versa. Postfix is a quite popular MTA, even though Debian defaults to Exim. Dovecot is an IMAP and POP3 server. Its purpose is to make mail accessible to your users in case they use a mail user agent (Outlook, Thunderbird/Iceweasel, mutt etc.). Roundcube does the same, but by using a web interface instead of using IMAP/POP. You can always offer both because Roundcube needs an IMAP server in the background anyway. Spamassassin is a mail filtering tool that your MTA can use in order to decide to reject or silently delete unwanted mail. There are other programs with a similar functionality. The Unix philosophy is still one job, one tool. And for each job you can pick the tool most suitable to you from a variety of alternatives. The downside is that you have to learn all those tools and how to plug them together. The upside is that you learn all those tools. :) That helps to diagnose problems and solve specific requirements in your environment. The all-in-one approach is probably ok for closed systems, maybe without a dedicated administrator. In case of Zimbra you get additional groupware functionality , like a calendar service. For external mail routing, personally I would always pick one of the standard MTAs. For office environments, people mix both approaches by using a standard MTA for external communication and use some kind of groupware internally.

Re: debian wheezy netinst questions
This situation gets funny, so anyone reading further is warned to be sitting on the floor or you'll likely get hurt falling off of your chairs. The talking arch linux disk and instructions for installing talking archlinux had changed but even with that I managed to get archlinux to partition and format the seagate baracooda 7200 1500GB drive I have. Since I didn't have the current talking arch disk and the brailled instructions I wrote no longer apply, I figure why not roll the dice and see if debian will thrash the drive like it did before. So I start over with a debian install and this time no disk thrashing and debian installed on the Seagate Baracooda 7200 1500GB drive with no problems. I find it funny when a competing Linux ends up doing a critical part of the job yet can't complete an installation and then the original desired Linux finally does install on the drive. Archlinux is a small operating system and I have many smaller sata drives I can and will install that system on at a later time since small systems work well on small drives. Larger systems need larger drives.

Installing - partitioning failing
I have a system with a Windows 7 installation (NTFS) which I'd like to keep and use alongside Debian. During the installation process I reduced the size of the main partition which left a hole that the installer labelled unusable. I wasn't sure what to do with that, but tried to use LVM to get it to use that as the place where it should create a group (whatever that is).When I selected it and pressed Return, the system complained. With a bunch of question marks. There was no recognisable text at all. After that, the installer can't do anything with the partitions - it fails to recognise them, I think, and just springs back to the main menu when I try to select that option again. What have I done wrong? How do I fix it? Why is the installer giving me sh1t? :-( -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Looks like I misunderstood you. No, you read it right. The printers that I'm aware about their PDF capabities used system 2/ instead 1/, that is, a software (driver/firmware) to do the transform from job input to PDF output.

Anyway: a PostScript printer has a PostScript interpreter; a PCL printer has a PCL interpreter; a PDF printer has a PDF interpreter. They accept print jobs sent directly to them in the supported language. And that's the key. No transformations are needed, no necessity for interpreting the input, it's direct. When the printer lacks from PCL6 or PS or PDF interpreter you're missing that capability. Does your printer integrate a PDF interprerter? The ones I managed do not, just PCL6 and PostScript.

That's the stock memory that comes with the printer (500 MiB) and the maximum allowed (up to 1 GiB). Those are very high numbers not available for the vast majority of the printing devices.

I first switched -time ago- from MDaemon (v3.2) when I installed a Linux system and had to select a good replacement for it. Hint: write down in a paper what's your current mail system data flow (user's mailboxes, incoming/outgoing messages, filter needings, anti-spam/ malware needings, local/remote connections...), what are your current requirements and what are the tasks that MDaemon is doing right now. This will help you to get the big picture for a better understanding. sorry i think i explain a bit wrong. i was using Mdeamon in my last company my current company is fetching emails from mail server from our service provider. since we fetch the email via pop and sent via smtp the problem is i need to make backup of individual PST. therefore i presented the idea to management for IMAP. so i think my basic need are. POP emails from hosted server. IMAP for local users, ldap for AddressBook/contents update. spam filter and antivirus scan. and obviously Web access for clients. and i dont know if SQL database is better then local mail folders. because mdeamon use to store data in a folder. but i think SQL is much more better then that. Zimbra can be seen as a tool more in the line of what MDaemon is (an all in one solution providing pop3/imap/smtp/webmail/AV/filtering/ multipop...) but that can be an advantage only for the first days when you setup but as time passes, it will reveal that using separate tools for each task has more benefits that relying in just one service for the mail system.

HTPC box - XBMC sound problem
Hi all! I buy a few time ago a new box for HTPC usage. It has a Nvidia Ion2 HDMI graphic card and it works very fine, but I have some problems. I installed Debian Unstable, with Gnome as graphical environment. The, I discover that XBMC was added to the Debian repositories, so I installed it. On Gnome, without XBMC, I can't configure the Pulseaudio output. The only way to hear something by the HDMI sound output on my TV was using Mplayer frontends that allows to configure the audio output to use, using one of the Alsa outputs (alsa:device=hw=1.7). It works fine, and I assume that it will work using XBMC, but it doesn't. First, I uninstalled Pulseaudio, because I was not using any of this features and its configuration on Gnome breaks my pulseaudio configuration files in some way I only can recover the control over it removing the pulse-files to recover the default ones. Then, I tried to configure the same audio output on XBMC, but I was unsuccessful. At the end, I tried with some .asoundrc magic, but it was apparently ignored. Has anybody a similar problem? Somebody has configured XBMC to use the HDMI output? Best regards and thanks in advance. -- José Luis Segura Lucas signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

I'm not a Debian project member but from reading past messages about similar requires, they usually dont delete posts as that is not the nature of Debian, it defaults to 'open', and also the fact that your post would be mirrored to more places, so you'd still have to ask every other website to do it to be truly effective. Another good point to learn is about anonymity, pseudonymity and the need to create less traceable aliases on the internet.
