qmail is easy .
dns is must configure.
you better read document for dns.it's not easy.

I set up a mail server using postfix and ipop3. Both of which come with redhat. Any time I have to install any thing I shake my head because I am so new to linux it take me like three days. So any time it is already installled the happier I am. I know I know thats the easy way out. Linux can be hard to understand some times. Anyways both of those have been working great for me.

www.e-smith.org could also do the trick.. but it needs a whole system to work..
