Mail server

Anyone here that knows how to configure a mail server on a Linux machine? Msg me, thank u!

UPDATE:

Is anyone familiar with these: http://www.fastmail.fm/mail/personal.html

Wouldn't this be the easiest way to go? That way I wouldnt need to configure my own mail server (or am I wrong?)

Thanks for the reply.


1. I don't use Ubuntu, I use CentOS.

2. I don't know how to do it my self, not even with a guide. That's why I'm seeking for people who know

You should either ask this question on the forums/mailing list of the mail server software you are using, or on your distribution's forums, which, in this case, is CentOS.

This is not a Linux support forum. As as such, you will see better results to such support requests by using the proper mediums.

I wanted someone who is familiar with Boonex also.

This is not a Dolphin-related question, nor does it have anything to do with the script.

Setting up the mail server doesn't really have anything to do with Dolphin.

This is an email service - not an email server - If you just want an email account why not use hotmail / gmail etc

If you need a mail server to work with your Dolphin install you will need to use the local mail server - the php mail() function will not work across domains - this is how dolphin sends emails.

Basic email handling is pretty easy for linux - install something like dovecot / postfix / sendmail for a lightweight pop/smtp server.

But, if you're running your own linux webserver and you are having trouble with centOS -do yourself a favour and change to Ubuntu - there's lots more support out there, and installing this kind of stuff is a cinch. Why torture yourself? (unless of course you are stuck with it)

Of course there are many other considerations - firewalls / spam filters / encryption / webmail / other mail protocols - you really need to determine what it is you want, and for what reason.
