The configuration described here is not very complicated but still needs to be done carefully. You are expected to have at least basic knowledge of: * MySQL (creating a database, granting access to users, basic SQL queries) * SMTP (what it is and what a basic SMTP dialog looks like) * POP3, IMAP (what they do and what the differences are) * basic Postfix configuration (understand the default settings in your main.cf, have read through the basic configuration document and know that your mail log file is at /var/log/mail.log) * Debian/Linux (general system administration, using a text editor, reading log files)

his document is derived from Christoph Haas’ tutorial “Howto: ISP-style Email Server with Debian-Etch and Postfix” (http://workaround.org) and Falko Timme’s tutorial “Virtual Users And Domains With Postfix, Courier, MySQL And SquirrelMail (Ubuntu 8.04 LTS)” (http://www.howtoforge.com). The associated Mailfix Drupal module must be installed as part of this tutorial. It will guide you through the necessary steps to configure a Drupal driven Mail server. Provided features: * Drupal managed email accounts * Support for virtual domains * Automatic forwarding * Postfix quota support * Silent BCC monitoring * Other features: anti-spam, anti-virus

To test and benchmark several common SMTP servers for Unix. This is inspired by the work done by Matthias Andree at his Postfix vs. qmail - Performance page. His information, while likely still highly relevant is based heavily around file system I/O and not overall performance of the MTA. Additionally, more MTAs and OSs will eventually be tested here.

Here is a quick guide to implementing virus protection on an existing Qmail server by adding Postfix, ClamAV and amavisd-new. Readers may ask themselves why anyone would want to do this. There is an actual reason why this particular set up came about.

Convert Vpopmail to Postfix MySQL

You are not a Linux expert, Artica for Postfix allows you to install a full solution by one single command line: * Postfix: Main MTA * Kaspersky Anti-spam: powerfull Anti-spam provided by Kaspersky Inc * Kaspersky Anti-Virus * Bogofilter : Bayesian anti-spam * OpenLDAP: Database for main configuration and user management * emailrelay: little SMTP server (used as a content-filter) * SQLite library: zeroconf sql database engine with high perfomances. * Cyrus-imap: powerfull MDA System * Procmail: MDA Filter * Fetchmail: Email retreival * DnsMasq:DNS forwarder and DHCP server * Mailman:Mailing List manager * Sieve: End-user mail filters * Yorel script: Statistics of yorel * QueueGraph: Statistics for postfix * MailGraph: Statistics for postfix * AWSTats and geoip plugin: Statistics set for postfix * renattach: attachments filter

Ce billet explique rapidement comment installer un serveur mail secondaire ou appellé aussi MX (Mail eXchanger) secondaire, serveur de relai avec Postfix.

Regroupés dans un installeur Artica embarque : * - Postfix : Main MTA * - Kaspersky Anti-spam : powerfull Anti-spam provided by Kaspersky Inc * - Kaspersky Anti-Virus : the best antivirus solution provided by Kaspersky Inc * - OpenLDAP : Database for main configuration and user management * - Cyrus-imap : powerfull MDA System * - Procmail : MDA Filter * - Fetchmail : Email retreival * - DnsMasq : DNS forwarder and DHCP server * - RoundCube : End-user Webmail * - Sieve : End-user mail filters * - Yorel script : Statistics of yorel * - QueueGraph : Statistics for postfix * - MailGraph : Statistics for postfix * - AWSTats and geoip plugin : Statistics set for postfix Evidemment, les composantes Kaspersky Antivirus et Antispam sont soumises à licence mais ne sont pas indispensables pour voir le reste fonctionner. Après installation des modules primaires, Artica, Postfix, Ldap, l'utilisateur peut à sa guise installer par un simple bouton les logiciels connexes tels que Kapsersky, fetchmail, Dnsmasq... La console web Artica-Postfix est sous Licence Apache et peut être récupérée gratuitement... Quelques mots sur les fonctionnalités : * - Gestion multidomaine * - Quarantaine par domaine / par utilisateur * - Gestion de Virtual IP * - Gestion de l'intégralité des paramètres Postfix (à ce que je sache, c'est la seule suite logicielle proposant cette fonctionnalité au monde) * - Annuaires basés sur OpenLDAP pour des temps de réponse défiant toute concurrence * - Configuration par domaines / groupes / utilisateurs * - Outils de statistiques avancés * - etc.

This guide describes how to set up a full email solution in Debian Linux (all code is from Debian Etch). I was asked to design a secure, scalable, portable solution for a small company. While the guide references many 'servers', the company only had 4 physical machines, Xen was used to virtualize the entire solution. That particular aspect of the system is not discussed in this guide, although I will try to get it into the next revision.

Issue 8 provides a guide to deploying Email systems from End to End. Several columns look at each component of an Enterprise grade email solution using Open Source. These articles lead up to a discussion on designing Scalable SMTP Networks. This issue also looks at Voicemail / Email integration with Asterisk.

This HOWTO enables you to build a complete open source turn-key email server in a matter of hours (instead of days or weeks). In one sense it is more like one big script that requires intervention. It can be considered a howto if one reads the contents of each patch and script I provide.

This document describes how to integrate ASSP (Anti-Spam SMTP Proxy) with embedded ClamAV into a mail server based on Postfix featuring virtual users and domains, i.e. users and domains that are in a MySQL database.

n this tutorial I will show how you can set up a Postfix mailserver as a backup mail exchanger for a domain so that it accepts mails for this domain in case the primary mail exchanger is down or unreachable, and passes the mails on to the primary MX once that one is up again.

J'ai donc décidé de prendre le taureau par les cornes, et j'ai mis en place du greylisting [3] Le principes et simple: chaque mail qui arrive est d'abord refusé par postfix, qui stocke dans une base de donnée l'adresse IP de l'expéditeur, l'adresse email de l'expéditeur, et l'adresse email du destinataire. Tout serveur SMTP "réglo" va tenter plus tard un nouvel envoi, qui sera alors accepté. Les spammeurs, eux, majoritairement, ne feront pas de nouvel envoi.

This tutorial shows how to set up a Debian Etch (Debian 4.0) based server that offers all services needed by ISPs and hosters: Apache web server (SSL-capable), Postfix mail server with SMTP-AUTH and TLS, BIND DNS server, Proftpd FTP server, MySQL server, Courier POP3/IMAP, Quota, Firewall, etc. This tutorial is written for the 32-bit version of Debian Etch, but should apply to the 64-bit version with very little modifications as well.

is an attempt to provide an alternative to the widely-used Sendmail program. Postfix attempts to be fast, easy to administer, and hopefully secure, while at the same time being sendmail compatible enough to not upset your users. Postfix Admin Postfix Admin is a Web-based management tool for Postfix. It handles Postfix-style virtual domains and users that are stored in MySQL. It has support for over 20 languages. It was initially released in December of 2002.

Domain Technologie Control (DTC) is a GPL control panel for hosting. Using a web GUI for admin and accounting all hosting services, DTC can delegate the task of creating subdomains, email, and FTP accounts to users for the domain names they own. DTC manages a MySQL database containing all the hosting information. It has support for many programs (bind 8 and 9 and compatibles, MySQL, Apache 1.3, php4, qmail, postfix 2, courier, dovecot, proftpd, webalizer, mod-log-sql, etc.) through config files and/or MySQL plugins (when the service is non-critical). It can also generate backup scripts, calculation scripts, and config files using a single system UID/GID and monitor all traffic accounting per user and per service. Since version 0.12, DTC is fully skinable and translated into several languages (Chinese, English, Spanish, French, Dutch, German, Italian, Russian, Hungarian, Romanian and Polish).
