This would certainly be a great start. As I see it, a mailsystem Wiki should have some specific divisions itself. One would be 'General' and then it would likely need 'Sendmail', 'Postfix', 'Qmail' areas. I'm just thinking out loud here. I've never done anything on a Wiki. I think a good initial layout however would be important. I'm trying to think about the gotchas I discover when trying to search for things. It seems like it always comes up two out of three and therefore isn't relevant.

Thinking of organisation, it would need subdivisions for each part of the equation. I think each entry would benefit from an 'executive summary'. where pros and cons can be quickly evaluation - and I'd put it at the beginning, just after the index. That way it would be relatively easy to evaluate which alternatives were most likely to suit the purpose. The main body would probably be a how-to. How does that sound?

Sounds like I've just volunteered myself to participate in this Wiki! And yes, I'd be thrilled to!

I'd be happy to discuss the issues as suited to a family LAN imap server. I use fetchmail, dovecot, procmail, postfix and kmail for my setup.

sendmail, dspam and dovecot here. I keep saying I'll post an article to my blog about how I got dspam working with Apache 2.2. I still have some testing to do and a few loose ends to tie up before I would say it's ready to inflict on others.
