A simpler approach would be look for separate how-to's on
1. centos (help you install the OS) 2. postfix, sa and clam (as long as the how-to is written for Redhat you should be fine) 3. dovecot
since these are somewhat separate topics.
Here are some possible guides for you to follow
http://www.freespamfilter.org/FC4.html http://rimuhosting.com/support/settingupemail.jsp?mta=postfix See centos.org for installation documentation
You can get most of the base packages through a yum update so no need to compile for the most part.
Let me know if you have any more questions,

I have tried searching google (found page 1 only in the cache), howtoforge.com, linuxhelp.net (older postfix document), centos forums, hughesjr forum and centos irc channel.
I was pointed to linuxhelp.net and at first thought that the howto in the forums there was it. Unfortunately, I only glanced at the title when I bookmarked it and when I got back home later that evening and actuallty read through it did I realize that it was not the howto document I was looking for.
I know hughesjr has alot of other things to do then find a way to repost the howto just for me so I have been trying to avoid directly asking him to re-post the guide somewhere (his site is being rebuilt currently). My last guess is to try here in the hopes that someone here has used the howto and kept a local copy and would be kind enough to share it.
thanks. _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
