I’d like to thank you for the tutorials you have so far, they’ve been very helpful in setting up my machine.
An important aspect that is missing in my opinion is a tutorial on how to setup a mail server, configure postfix, etc.
Since Google Apps is not free anymore this becomes a more important issue.

Yes, I Did try it. But I hit a road block at “sudo yum install cyrus-sasl” as there is no package for “cyrus-sasl” on ubuntu 12.10 <br> <br>lol, This is really silly. Linux has been the server system of choice for years. But how is it nobody has come up with an easy way to install a mail server hahahahah
I was able to get my mail server sending mail. I’m running all of the mailboxes on another providers server so I don’t have to deal with that. However all of my messages are going to the spam folder in gmail and yahoo. Has anyone had this issue?
apt-get install libsasl2-2 sasl2-bin libsasl2-modules cyrus-imapd
<br> <br>Assuming you want Cyrus for imapd (recommended over pop3). <br> <br>Also a couple of good overviews: <br>https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Postfix <br>https://help.ubuntu.com/11.10/serverguide/postfix.html
