I am attempting to set up a mail server on a local Suse 10.3 box. I am totally lost!! Have tried to follow the info at: http://en.opensuse.org/Mail_server_HOWTO but, being a bit thick, haven't succeeded....
If I am setting up a local server, do I need fetchmail, etc?? I may be wrong (prob am!), but this info seems to be mostly client oriented, not server....??
What programs are actually needed, just to set up the server, (initially, just internally) and how do you then connect your clients to the server?? Sorry if I'm being a bit slow.....
John.
I set up my own mail server, to receive mail from a POP account, using fetchmail and the UW IMAP mail server. It works fine. Perhaps if you describe the issues you're having, we might be able to help. You use fetchmail to act as a POP client, to download mail from an ISP to your system. -- Use OpenOffice.org <http://www.openoffice.org> -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
