Instalar servidor de correo en Linux (Gentoo)

[Ferdy]

Now I'm using : Postfix + Courier-IMAP + Courier-POP3 + Maildir and it works so fine !!

Here are the steps:

First, emerge the packages:

Código:

[bash]# emerge postfix courier-imap

Then edit the postfix main.cf which is in /home/postfix/main.cf and add the line:

Código:

home_mailbox = Maildir/

Check de / (slash) because it's _very_ important

Now configure the authdaemon and the IMAP and POP3 daemons:

First edit the file /etc/courier-imap/authdaemonrc, and set the variable version to authdaemond.plain. Like this:

Código:

version="authdaemond.plain"

Now you have to edit the files /etc/courier-imap-imapd and /etc/courier-imap/pop3d and spedify this daemons to get the mail from the Maildir/:
Código:

Código:

MAILDIR=Maildir/

In both files, and

Código:

POP3DSTART=YES

In the pop3d and

Código:

IMAPDSTART=YES

In the other file.

Now add the daemons to runlevel default, and bring them up:

Código:

[bash]# rc-update add postfix default
[bash]# rc-update add authdaemond default
[bash]# rc-update add courier-imapd default
[bash]# rc-update add courier-pop3d default
[bash]# /etc/init.d/postfix start
[bash]# /etc/init.d/authdaemond start
[bash]# /etc/init.d/courier-imapd start
[bash]# /etc/init.d/courier-pop3d start

Well, it's not very good guide, but HTH.

IMHO now the best thing you can do is installing Apache, mod_ssl and PHP to get Squirrelmail working and allow your users to use their mail throught IMAP, POP3 or Web

Luego si tengo un rato lo traduzco, lo escribí hace cierto tiempo en los foros de Gentoo pero creo que quizá pueda ayudar aqui.
