New Mail Server Setup
Apr 18, 2008
I want to setup a mail server on a CentOS box on a cable connection via comcast. We have a commerical account with one IP address only but the server will be behind a router.
Will I have to manually assign the server an ip address? As of right now I cant see the server from the outside. What will I have to do to have email route to that box?

AMD Athlon54 X2 512Kx2 socket AM2 3800
slamd64-11.0
Just completed installing the captioned OS with everything installed except GAME. This is an experiment. slamd64 is now running on the box.
I'm going to setup virtual mail boxes on this server, allowing my friends using the mail server sending and receiving mails. Please advise;
1) how to check whether sendmail is running and configured properly.
2) how to setup virtual mail boxes. Where can I find relevant tutorial.

First the run down...
I work for an ISP providing service to several thousand customers...
We are now taking on multi-millions of emails everyday (sometimes over a billion) (we purchased a couple of smaller ISPs and moved them to our mailserver)
Since the move from their old servers to the new... our uptime on our pop3/smtp server ran about 11... we had to institute a mail filtering server... it was getting around 2500 concurrent connections to the server and running an even higher uptime, and delaying emails around 8 minutes per message!
Our POP3/SMTP server is Redhat 9 (I know its old, but it still runs good) (Dual Xeon 2.8 HT 2 GB RAM NO RAID)... our frontend filtering server is FreeBSD (Dual Xeon 3.06 2 GB RAM RAID5)
Needless to say our current setup cannot handle the amount of email being processed... We need to implement amavisd back into the filtering equation so that spamassassin will filter mail based on the user preferences and delivered to procmail to our POP3/SMTP server so that it has no load basically...
SO what I want to do is this (please correct anywhere im going wrong):
I want to have a main incoming mail processing server (does RBL rejects and anything left over it will pass on to another server)
But the kicker is, I want the mail processing server to do this (we will call it mx1.troubledisp.com):
Incoming Mail->mx1.troubledisp.com
mx1.troubledisp.com->mx2.troubledisp.com
(But I want 3 servers in the middle, mx2, mx3,mx4)
Basically I want one message to go to one server, one to go to another, and so on... So basically EVERY message that comes in will go to a different mx server, not just loading up 1 server until it cant process anymore....
Then after it is processed it needs to go to the original mail.troubledisp.com
So if email #1 is received it will go like this:
mx1.troubledisp.com->mx2.troubledisp.com->mail.troublesisp.com
When email #2 comes in it goes like this:
mx1.troubledisp.com->mx3.troubledisp.com->mail.troubledisp.com

I've registered a domain at a registrar. The domain is hosted at a computer at my university (running a linux distro). At the registrar I've made an mx pointer to the server at the university.
What would be the easiest way of setting up e-mail accounts like: support@domain.com, feedback@domain.com and so on? I would like to be able to access the e-mail accounts with pop3 or imap as well.
I have access to the server through ssh.

I want to config my IIS SMTP server to copy ALL sent mail to another address.
Or, to log in more detail what was sent (I have W3C logging turned on but it doesnt record the mail subject or body).
Basically when a user complains they didnt get an email, I want to be able to look in the log to see (a) the mail was sent and (b) the body/subject of the mail.

a Control Panel for OS X 10.4 (non server)?
Current setup:
OS X 10.4.9
Postfix
Apache 1.3.33 (Darwin)
Is there a better setup? I have an extra (older) mac machine that I could play with. I would prefer free software recommendations.
I still consider myself a newbie at this even though I've been hosting my own business and personal sites for a few years now. I am now looking into maybe providing services in the near future to the public. My goal is to manage the entire service from equipment to customer service.

I registered a domain name and setup a Linux server on GoDaddy, choosing Plesk panel with Power Pack. Inside the panel I created an email address, which I can access from the webmail interface without problems. I decided to setup my clients as well, using the IMAP configuration, as I'm using multiple devices.
I followed the instructions for Outlook express and I was able to setup the account on my virtual machine, with Windows 7 and Windows Live Mail.Though, speaking of the host machine, a MacBook Pro, I normally use Apple Mail that comes with MacOS. Instructions for setting up Mail are updated back to Snow Leopard at least and they do not work properly. I tried various configurations, but I was only able to receive mail on the account, while sending won't work at all.
I'd like Parallels to update the guide or, at least, to open a KB page with the solution(s) to this issue: I googled it and found out that it is a common issue.

I just want to use a server for file sharing, it will have nginx and that's it. I'm looking at centos, or freebsd, but I been using centos forever now and I'm not sure how to use freebsd, should I just stay with centos?
Do I tell my hosting provider to just install the OS and give me ssh action and that's it? Don't install any control panels or any other stuff? I want one domain and one subdomain on it though and ftp action.

As my clients' needs expand, they're asking for chroot ssh/sftp setup. I'm currently on a dedicated Linux setup but don't really have the time to set up a whole new box with full virtualization or investigate a full chroot solution (baby on the way), and to be honest it would be less hassle to move to a new provider than worry about down time with sites.
What I'm looking for:
- linux hosting
- hosting for 30+ accounts, some with several domains
- at least 6 IP addresses for SSL certs
- each account in a full chroot environment (ssh/sftp/ftp) so they can't poke around each others' files, or each account set up in a virtual machine setup (ie: openvz)
- maildir
- spamassassin
- php 5, mysql, perl 5.8.8
- suexec apache would be nice
