mailserver in gentoo

skalman93 · 09-14-2009, 09:48 AM

Hi, Can anyone point me in the right direction on how to set up a mailserver.
Port 25 is blocked, is there a way around it?
What server to use?
Antispam?
Webclient?

Have a search under my id. There are a good few tips on building a mail server.

I did it in a weekend with some only minor problems. Its actually rather easy and good to learn from.

Ok, I'll try that. Thank you.

I use dovecot as my imap server, it's rather easy to setup and works well.

You change the port..
mine is set to 25000 in the /etc/postfix/master.cf

#smtp inet n - n - - smtpd
25000 inet n - n - - smtpd -v
