MailServer with Mysql and spam


I need some assistance.

Here is my goal, I need to find a good program.

I am installing Redhat 9.0
I would like to have an Email server using postfix on it for hosting more than one domain.
I also would like the users to reside in a mysql database that are allowed to get email.
then I would like to have a some sort of good spamming software to watch the incoming email.
This spam program will need to be customized per domain.

Anyone out there have something good or a very good suggestion to try out.

Brian

This Gentoo forums thread is a good start. Of course, it's Gentoo-specific but it's adaptable to other distributions as well.

Is Gentoo just like Redhat?
Where do you download the full install cd?

No. Gentoo is quite unlike Redhat. It is a source based distribution, meaning you compile everything from scratch. While this may sound hairy, it's not - it's just a matter of typing emerge programname and the program you want - and all dependencies - are downloaded, built and installed. Very neat.

The installer is quite unlike other ones though, and it does make you actually *do* things to get it installed. No harm in that, and it's a learning experience for most people.
