hi!
does anyone has a good howto, docs how to set up an smtp, pop3, imap server, with webmail, and has anti virus solution, and even spam filtering? :D [plus secure connection for the clients :D ]
wich softwares are the best for this? [e.g.: "vsftpd is the most secure ftp server"..]
users would be from /etc/passwd [so not virtual users]
thank you!
p.s.: I've already googled :( :\

How about using the CentOS wiki - I have used this and know it works as advertised! HTH

You also asked this exact same question on the Fedora mailing list. I answered it for you there.

If you want a appliance-like distribution that does this out of the box, look at SME server from www.contribs.org. Otherwise, look at MimeDefang and clamav for filtering (both in rpmforge), and horde or squirrelmail.

I use squirrelmail. Never used horde.
Having said that, I see a lot more automated bot attacks against horde* in my logs than I see against squirrelmail. So in the absence of any other measure of security, horde is getting attacked more than squirrelmail.
Again, I know nothing whatsoever about horde other than that. But it's a point I believe worthy of consideration.

---- Probably because horde is much more popular. Horde does so much more than squirrelmail it hardly warrants comparison.

Meh. Squirrelmail does what it's intended to do. Perhaps the additional features offered by Horde provide a larger surface for the bad guys to attack.

---- of course... that's what happens when you have a larger array of services but that's not why the attacks. The attacks are largely to exploit PHP weaknesses.

There is a tutorial for using Postfix, Courier, Squirelmail, and mySQL on FC10 at:
http://howtoforge.net/virtual-users-domains-postfix-courier-mysql-squirrelma...
We have gotten this working on Amahi (amahi.org), see: http://wiki.amahi.org/index.php/Amahi_Mail_System
I have been running this since mid september (I was bigfoot's beta tester). I run 4 domains and about 30 users on a 1Ghz/512Mb Compaq SFF server. I process around 5000+ smtp connections/day or which only half get processed as 'reasonable' connections and 2/3 of that get canned as spam resulting in ~700/day good messages. So the system really works to filter out the trash.
We are working on moving Amahi to FC11 and develop a Centos version.
I tried contribs.org, but I could not 'live' with the limitation of an email address in only one domain and the workaround to deal with it. My address of 'rgm' is used in a number of my domains, for example.
The mySQL tables for the above setup are easy to manage. All the mail ends up in /home/vmail/<domain>/user, making it easy to manage. I ran SCALIX for about 7 years, and all the mail in a SQL database was nothing but a pain.
