mail server

Linux Magazine: "There's more about ln, including some examples of how to use a data file and a combination of other utilities.

And we'll see some examples of what the tiny editor sed can do -- like editing email as it pours through a mail server."

After it was ruled that a hacker who obtained unauthorized emails from TorrentSpy on behalf of the MPAA did not technically intercept them under the WireTap Act, the EFF has filed a friend-of-the-court brief.

EFF describes the recent decision as a “dangerous attempt to circumvent privacy laws,” and wants to see it overturned.

For a few years now, we've been covering the battle between TorrentSpy and the MPAA. While TorrentSpy has given in and shut down on the question concerning the operations of its business, there was a separate legal question that is still being fought in court.

As we noted recently, TorrentSpy has appealed the judge's ruling that the MPAA didn't break any laws in gaining access to its executives' emails.

Free Software Magazine: "Smail is simple, clean and efficient. Although it is as secure as pretty much most of its larger cousins (it’s been the subject of just one security advisory), it has arguably one of the least cumbersome configuration set-ups around.

Its small size and simple configuration make it a great replacement for the bigger MTAs — especially Sendmail — in situations where you just don’t have the time/energy/patience to get involved with configuring an MTA."

Linux Links: "Email is arguably one of the most popular and useful functions of a Linux system. Fortunately, there is a wide selection of free email software available on the Linux platform which is stable, feature laden, and ideal for personal and business environments.

Send and receive emails, run a mail server, filter spam, administer a mailing list are just some of the options explored in this article."

HowtoForge: "I decided to update and add extra information on a tutorial I found online by Babaraleem to further assist Postfix newbie's.

I experienced a difficult time following up on an out of date howto, when setting up my own mail server.

I spent a long time troubleshooting, googling and reading other tutorials and documentation on postfix.

The final results is this howto."

Howtoforge: "This tutorial shows how to set up a CentOS 5.2 server that offers all services needed by ISPs and web hosters: Apache web server (SSL-capable), Postfix mail server with SMTP-AUTH and TLS, BIND DNS server, Proftpd FTP server, MySQL server, Dovecot POP3/IMAP, Quota, Firewall, etc.

This tutorial is written for the 32-bit version of CentOS 5.2, but should apply to the 64-bit version with very little modifications as well."

If you're anything like the average System Administrator, you are understaffed, underfunded, and overworked.

By now, you've also gotten used to the idea that no one knows you exist until the mail server goes down, then you're suddenly on America's Most Wanted.

In this article, I'm also assuming that you have many servers that you are responsible for. I'm also assuming
