Then set up your postfix main.cf config just like they show you in the virtual mail howto on Gentoo.org. Then, if you need pop or imap, emerge something like uw-imap, courier-imap, or dovecot to handle that. The configuration is quite easy. Search the forums, as I know there are some good hints on there as well. --Josh Hunholz >Tks in advice, > >Claudinei Matos > > > -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
[gentoo-user] gentoo guide for postfix
Hi guys, I'm a newbie to this email server things and some days ago I've installed a postfix server just to send outgoing mail (relay) but now I have to turn this server us incoming mail server to catch all messages for us domain. Well, I know I have to install courier-imap 'cause I want to use imap, and will also need to be able to add other domains to this mail server as I want. Well, I'd took a look at http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/virt-mail-howto.xml but it's a little bit confusing since I had not ever did anything like that and that guide spoke about things I not sure I need, like SSL. So, what I want is to know what I really need to make my server catch all messages incoming to the domains I'll specify at postfix configuration, and also, how to specify that?

[gentoo-user] gentoo guide for postfix
Hi guys, I'm a newbie to this email server things and some days ago I've installed a postfix server just to send outgoing mail (relay) but now I have to turn this server us incoming mail server to catch all messages for us domain. Well, I know I have to install courier-imap 'cause I want to use imap, and will also need to be able to add other domains to this mail server as I want. Well, I'd took a look at http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/virt-mail-howto.xml but it's a little bit confusing since I had not ever did anything like that and that guide spoke about things I not sure I need, like SSL. So, what I want is to know what I really need to make my server catch all messages incoming to the domains I'll specify at postfix configuration, and also, how to specify that?
