I am hoping you folks on the list could advise me on this...
Can anyone point me towards a HOW-TO that describes how to transform a normal CentOS install into a very basic POP3/IMAP/SMTP email server?
Our current ISP where we host ~15 domains and ~25+ email accounts has a mandatory incoming "auto-discard" spam filter that is far too strict to continue using.
Unfortunately, switching ISPs is not an option right now.
I am looking at signing up for a basic low-memory CentOS "Virtual Dedicated Server" to handle our own incoming (& outgoing) mail.
There will not be a full-time IT person to maintain the server, so simplicity is a must.
I am perfectly fine with leaving out complex server-side spam filtering, though I suspect that some basic blacklist usage would be a good idea.
Hi
I do not know of a simple howto for this, but have a email server farm to process email for my friends/family and can process your emails and forward them to your existing ISP, you would just need to change your MX records.
I do not make a charge, but paypal donations welcome.
If you want to know more, please email me off list.
Regards
Denis
