I was wondering if anyone knows how to set up a mail server for a local network. The computer will be running Redhat 9, and will have an ISDN connection. I want to be able to connect to the Internet, download all e-mails from one address (which actually receives mail from about 5 accounts), and disconnect. Then when a user from another computer on the local network needs his/her email, they just need to log onto the linux computer and it will send the relevant emails to his program, probably Outlook Express.

I'm a newbie/intermediatte user and I have already tried setting up sendmail, Exim, etc. but cant seem to get anything working. Maybe someone can tell me how they set up their mail server step by step...

PLEASE HELP!!!

Thanks
