The sudoers file should always be edited with 'sudo visudo' (see 'man visudo'). 'visudo' runs $EDITOR, which is not necessarily 'vi'. You can define the EDITOR variable (here I assume 'nano' is your favorite text editor) when running the command: $ sudo EDITOR=nano visudo But you probably

Indeed. hack and hack, there's nothing special about a "server." It's just a computer running some programs, nothing more.

You do not need a virtual machine. You can install the server on your system. For instance, you can install the "openssh-server" package and you have an SSH server running on your system.

I have to agree with you: I stopped watching the mailinabox tutorial when the guy said "this will take about an hour or two". When you think that the people you communicate with must do as much for the whole thing to make sense, you can be that only a few would try it. Even gpg is

Just out of ignorance : I didn't know I could set up my main OS also as a server at the same time. Not sure how I'd do that though, it seems harder to do (but virtualization is hard in its own way as well, specially since Virtualbox isn't an option anymore).

Mailinabox (https://mailinabox.email) is very good and has made this easy to set up. The author insists it's designed to be run from a VPS, but I run it in a VM on my home server and it works marvellously. All you need is a static IP. The ability to set reverse-DNS at your ISP also helps.
