Howto Open WebMail using Postfix & vm-pop3d
Original by Kevin L. Ellis
About Open Webmail...
Open WebMail is a webmail system
based on the Neomail version
1.14 from Ernie Miller.
Open WebMail is targeted on dealing with very big mail folder files in
a
memory efficient way. It also provides many features to help users to
switch
rom Microsoft Outlook smoothly.
About Postfix...
What is Postfix? It is Wietse Venema's mailer that
started life as an alternative
to the widely-used Sendmail program.
Postfix attempts to be fast, easy to administer, and secure, while at
the same
time being sendmail compatible enough to not upset existing users. Thus,
the outside has a sendmail-ish flavor, but the inside is completely different.
This software was formerly known as VMailer. It was released by the end
of 1998
as the IBM Secure Mailer. From then on it has lived on as Postfix.
About
vm-pop3d...
vm-pop3d
is a POP3 server. It is free to download and use. It supports alternative
password files and mail spool directories; it can be used for setting up
virtual email
accounts -- mailboxes without real Unix owners for each. This will allow
you to have
multiple email accounts with the same name on one system.
vm-pop3d
has UIDL support. And it can be run as a standalone daemon or via inetd.
I recommend use Sourceforge forum
for support this topic.
