Hi,
I'm looking for a server software, but not even sure how to call it -
I'm tempted to say "email proxy", but that's something else - so here is
what I need/want.
The scenario is that I have multiple personal email accounts on multiple
servers, on some servers more than one email account per server. The
servers are of types POP, IMAP and Exchange. On some servers I have
space restrictions, so periodically I have to delete messages or an
automated process will it on the accounts on those servers.
What I'd like to do is to preserve an indefinite history of messages
locally on a server and be able to access that history from email
clients on multiple devices like phones, laptops, other PCs, etc.
So what I think I need is a server software that:
- is able to connect to all email accounts
- retrieve email messages
- keep a copy of the message locally
- regardless of whether was deleted on the original server or not
- with means of identifying the email account it was collected from
- accept connections from other email clients in a form that will allow
a copy of the messages to be preserved on it (IMAP comes to mind)
- when replying to a message from an email client connected to it, the
server will know to use the email account on the server the message
originally came from
- have a web interface (nice to have, not mandatory)
- be open source and run on linux
Does such a software exist in the FOSS world?
If this can be achieved with postfix/dovecot, I'd appreciate a link to a
how-to guide.
TIA
