Hi I have a mail and webserver hosted with my webservice provider. Now the problem is I am getting lots of spams on my mail server and my service provider is not in a position at present to setup a spam controller. Now, I want to setup a local mail server with 30 to 35 users, which will talk to my main mail server and deliver the mails to the users locally. How can i do that on my local server. Can anyone on the forum give me a setup idea about this. with rgrds kanak

Check out kolab as a great server for this - www.kolab.org the latest version 2 beta1 is pretty much ready for action.

I figure a simple setup with postfix, spamassasin and a free antivurs such as clam (for additional boost) will do the job. If you do not need virtual domains, yast will be enough to help you out. Otherwise, you will have to read postfix documentation.

Otherwise, you will have to read postfix documentation. I wish it were enough to use Yast2 to setup a simple mail server. Entering the data into Yast2->Network Services->MTA in theory does the fetching of the mail and where to put it but it does not show any interfaces to add programs like SpamAssassin and clam/antivir.
P.S.: and I have read the Postfix documentation. -- The Little Helper ======================================================================== Hylton Conacher - Linux user # 229959 at http://counter.li.org Currently using SuSE 9.0 Professional with KDE 3.1 Licenced Windows user ========================================================================

You need amavisd-new to connect Postfix, SpamAssassin, and ClamAV. Amavis will run on a port, typically 10024, accepting content-filter connections from Postfix. A second smtpd daemon will run on a port different from 15, typically 10025, accepting the filtered messages from Amavis. I have forgotten where I read how to connect them all, long ago and far away.

It's in the Setup howto provided by Spamassassin for Postfix. THeo -- Theo v.
