Ahh yes - this IS a good doc. I have had it for a few months. I was hoping
that it might have been an updated version. None
, and flags ... but then
he goes on to arbitrarily announce that you should increase both send and
receive TCP buffers to 64k, with no explanation. Jacking these values up
is not always a good idea, and I doubt if it's a good idea with a mail
server.

I would like to setup a mail server but am a little confused about whether
to use sendmail, qmail, postfix or whatever. Basically my web server is a
simple one to be used for personal use with maybe no more than a 10-20 mail
accounts.
What are the advantages and/or disadvantages of each choice
Gosh could you have picked a harder question? That is like saying Blondes,
Brunets or Red Heads?
You will have to read up about several MTA¹s and figure out what suites your
needs. It will take a good few hours of reading and if you are anything like
me with a wife job and three kids then time is

up a DNS to find the proper location of MYDOMAIN and then send an e-mail to
that address. Is it possible to set up and e-mail, [EMAIL PROTECTED] and
by pass the DNS? I thought it would be fun to play with a Mail Server

If you're
using POP3 or IMAP over SSL, check tcp 993 and tcp 995, too.
- - Check if the listening ports are ready to accept connections with the
command "netstat -an | grep LISTEN". Do you see the ports you expect?
- - Dumb question - are the mail server processes running?
- -
the TTL setting in your zone configuration.
You can check if the mail server is running and can deliver mail locally
by, on the mail server, do
$ telnet localhost 25
You can then type in manually the smtp commands, see rfc 2821. If you
can, then it may be a dns problem.
Next, can you send

It's actually something things it depends on (authlibmysql,
