Re: Open Xchange
Hi Mark, I did find that post and indeed it worries me that it looks like a silent forum. We would like to setup a exchange-like server with more or less the same function. We are open for suggestions if there is a better solution for this on zLinux. We have loaded mod_proxy_ajp according to the install instructions, but perhaps I should verify it's correct function. Thanks, Berry.

Re: Open Xchange
I agree. The primary goal is to have mailboxes, especially shared mailboxes, that users can connect to. At least in this stage calendars, contacts and such are not required since that is running within our regular (windows) exchange server environment. But as the project manager stated, he wanted exchange on zlinux. Perhaps just a word, exchange instead of mailserver just because he is used to the word exchange (just like OS=windows, sigh). OTOH, it would be nice if we could provide full exchange functionality. So if we can make an exchange replacement happen it would be nice. But if that proves to be too much at one time (or not possible at all) just a mailserver for shared mailboxes would be good for now too. Any thoughts on how to proceed here? Is a regular mailserver (postfix?) capable of providing shared mailboxes? Regards, Berry.

Postfix is an MTA (Mail Transfer Agent), not a mail delivery agent. I'm not sure what you mean by shared mailboxes. SLES comes with the cyrus-imapd, qpopper and imap packages, which provide an IMAP4, POP2 and POP3 email servers. People who are using MS Outlook on their desktop would be able to access those with no problem.

Is a regular mailserver (postfix?) capable of providing shared mailboxes? Take a look at this presentation by Scott Courtney: http://www.sinenomine.net/publications/conferences/2005/email It describes a massively scalable (the design point was 10 million mailboxes) mail system configuration that works well for this kind of thing. It offers shared mailboxes, high delivery rates, spam filtering, and a nice control panel interface with instrumentation for flow rates, etc. There would be no problem to update this design for SLES 10 or 11; all the components are there. You could also run real Exchange using the Windows Enabler code we wrote (assuming you can get Windows CALs for it). Offlist if you want to discuss. -- db -- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@vm.marist.edu with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390 -- For more information on Linux on System z, visit http://wiki.linuxvm.org/
