ClamAV will protect any PCs that get mail through you.

Depending on your Distro, setting up a full blown postfix + dovecot + clamav + spamassassin is about a 15 minute process of following along a step by step guide.

I would suggest you install webmin as well. It's a web-based GUI for managing your system. It has modules for dovecot and sendmail as well, making it super easy to set up.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21109808 Sun, 14 Sep 2008 19:25:30 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21062100 Brano : For simplistic setup I would not bring DB into the picture.

sendmail for receiving mails and virtual domains ...all in text files (and Maildir delivery if required)
courier-imap for imap/pop

Two components, both very easy to setup.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21062100 Fri, 05 Sep 2008 11:47:57 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21061309 EUS : Simple and your requirements are mutually exclusive.
Read up on postfix, courier, and mysql setups.
Postfix for mail delivery, courier for imap/pop backend, mysql for virtual domains/users. These are just one set of possibilities, there are others package combos that I have not used.

There's a lot of simple mail servers out there, but you will still need to read quite a alot. :D]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21060183 Thu, 04 Sep 2008 23:37:12 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21059552 Vchat20 : Maybe I'm barking up the wrong tree on this one in this specific forum, but I've been trying to get a real simplistic mail server set up on my debian box here.

I really don't have any advanced requirements for it. Just gotta have simple pop3/imap access, smtp capable of relaying through my ISP's SMTP server, and allowing me to set up so called 'virtual' domains (I have two dyndns domains pointed at my IP that need their own separate list of email addresses.).

Unfortunately everything so far I've looked up has had me going through a gruelling mess of setting up (literally) a dozen different packages, half of which I do not require. These being the likes of spamassassin and clamav and their related libraries.

Just curious if anyone knows of any simple IMAP/POP3/MTA/SMTP all-in-one apps or at least a reliable howto that's not gonna lead me into a minefield so-to-speak.

I swear, some people should have pace-makers installed to free up the resources.
