Well, you set up a web server to deliver web content. I'm assuming |
| 8 |
you're setting up a mail server to deliver mail. So the test is to see |
| 9 |
that it delivers mail. |

Not that I've ever used postfix, but testing a mail server should be |
| 12 |
pretty similar for any platform. |

1. Create a mailbox (or use a remote one) |
| 15 |
2. Using a MUA, for example, connect to mail server. |
| 16 |
3. Send message to be delivered to mailbox |
| 17 |
4. Verify message delivered to mailbox. |
