Hi Patel! <br> <br>On it’s own, postfix simply allows you to sent and receive mail from the server. If you need to access the email with a program like Outlook on your local computer, you’ll need to set up IMAP. I’d suggest using dovecot. There is a tutorial explaining it here: <br> <br>https://digitalocean.com/community/articles/how-to-configure-a-mail-server-using-postfix-dovecot-mysql-and-spamassasin <br> <br>iRedMail might be a good option for you as it sets up most everything for you as well as providing a web interface. Check it out: <br> <br>https://www.digitalocean.com/community/articles/how-to-install-iredmail-on-ubuntu-12-04-x64 <br> <br>Let us know how it goes!
