Linux Mail Server

[Darin Perusich]

i was a sendmail user for many years until i discovered postfix, after 
making the switch i'll never go back. are your users going to be 
accessing there email from this machine via POP or IMAP or is it only 
going to be a relay?

i would assume that you're are going to want to scan email for SPAM and 
virii. in my opinion the best tool for this is  amavisd-new, it combines 
spamassasin and a virus scanner into one easily configured tool. for the 
  virus scanning you can use clamav for any commercial product, i use 
the sophos SAVI on our system.

Postfix site http://www.postfix.org/
amavisd-new site http://www.ijs.si/software/amavisd/
postfix, amavisd smtp gate, very good info!
