We may want to evaluate vpopmail vs vmailmgr. vpopmail might be easier to |
| 2 |
set up since it uses one user for all vdomains and vmailmgr uses a user per |
| 3 |
domain. Also, as far as I can tell, vpopmail has a larger user base. It'll |
| 4 |
also work with courier-imap and a lot of web frontends. |
| 5 |
|
| 6 |
Whatever the case, I'm semi-familiar vpopmail and have never touched |
| 7 |
vmailmgr. Although... if we do one we might as well do both since they're |
| 8 |
easily the two most popular products to use in conjunction with qmail for |
| 9 |
virtual domains. I believe vpopmail can be configured to work with postfix |
| 10 |
too, but seeing has I have absolutely no experience with postfix I'm not a |
| 11 |
lot of good in that arena. |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
I've also never written an ebuild... but no time like the present to learn. |
| 14 |
I'm just glad I'm not in a rush on this new server. |
