Postfix and Gmail

2010-12-11 Thread Redd Vinylene
Anybody hooked their Postfix servers up with Gmail to use it as a client?
I'm tired of all this using mutt on several boxes, setting up virtual MySQL
accounts and domains with crap webapps. Figured I'd just use Gmail for it
all and be done with it. Curious what sort of experiences y'all have though.

Thanks.

In theory, you should be able to plop your POP3/IMAP info into GMail and be
off and running. (I would set up lables to sort your mail tho)

Hate to break it you, but Postfix is not client software. 

FWIW though, there are two problem areas wrt to running a mail server. 
There's running the mail server itself, and then there's trying to run a 
mail server with bad broken DNS.  You'd be surprised by how often 'mail' 
problems turn out to be the latter.

It's not impossible. There are several how-to documents. See
Google. What i found are:
