Jake,

the "temp" license to do some testing/integration with, just to make sure I

My question is, it appears Interworx takes a bone stock install of a
compatible OS (Let's say CentOS5) and installs everything, Apache, Qmail,
DNS, etc, almost like an ISO without the OS.  :-)

If this is true, do you usually just run the Interworx installation of
Qmail?  Does it contain the patches, etc that QMT does?  Or is it like one
of the other Qmail flavors?

For my purposes, it really doesn't have to do anything but handle user mail.
POP, Webmail, SMTP for users only, IMAP, etc.  I have frontend servers that
handle the spam filtering, etc, that will be using QMT, but it would still
be nice to have CHKUSER, SMTP Auth, TLS, etc.

Thanks!

Mike

  


I only set it up one time, and I just used the version of Qmail it 
installed. I did not even look at the installation it did - it worked so 
I didn't touch it.

Mike,

If you have a toaster setup you can easily try Webmin/Virtualmin and 
remove it if you don't like it.  The QMTISO serves very nicely as a base 
web/email hosting platform.

Interworx uses Qmail. Supports all of the popular things (reseller

RE: [qmailtoaster] Hosting Control Panel

2009-09-23 Thread Michael Colvin
I've used Webmin for years, just never looked at it as a user interface, and
have honestly never installed the usermin/virtualmin modules.  I'll look
into that.

Thanks for the information on Interworx also Jake.  It appears to be
supported by the billing system we just moved to also.  (WHMCS)  I will give
it a look.

Webmin actually has the features you are wanting.  They are in modules 
like Usermin and Virtualmin.  It is very robust and offers a great deal 
of flexibility on what you want your customers to have access to.  It 
also supports, bandwidth monitoring, webalizer, etc.
