[Dovecot] Book on Postfix/Dovecot or Postfix/Dovecot/Clam/Spam Assassin?

2014-04-01 Thread Jeffrey Walton
I'm looking for a book on Postfix/Dovecot or Postfix/Dovecot/Clam/Spam Assassin

The blog posts and the mini-HowTo's I am reading lack the detail to be
useful to me (due to my own ignorance).

Amazon does not list any books for sale. There are some hits when
searching for Dovecot, but I expect them to be one section with the
quality of a blog post or mini-HowTo. (I have two books on Red Hat and
Fedora administration, and the discussions don't meet the quality of a
blog post).

Does anyone know of a book on Postfix/Dovecot or
Postfix/Dovecot/Clam/Spam Assassin?

If there are no books with a structured treatment, then O'Reilly is
always looking for authors:

the problem of books, they are outdated quickly
also they may specialized with one software only
however you may read basics there

perhaps study

Yes.

O'Reilly's eBook attempts to address the issue with frequent updates
published electronically. (Though I personally have a taste for
paper).

I can recommend the books by Peer Heinlein
http://www.opensourcepress.de/de/produkte/Das-Postfix-Buch/434/978-3-941841-00-0
http://www.opensourcepress.de/de/produkte/Dovecot/13569/978-3-95539-075-4
The Dovecot-Book was just published 2 weeks ago.

Both books are in German, but I know that his other IMAP-Server book
(about Cyrus and Courier) has been translated into English. Maybe the
new books will be translated, too. Peer Heinlein can be reached via
