| Post subject: | Email server for Fedora |
HI, All the servers listed in the "Email Server Guides" are for non-Fedora distributions - Debian, Ubuntu, etc. Is there an Email Server that I can install on Fedora? thanks in advance for your help. Ankur |

Everyone seems to have their own preference - mine is Postfix. There is a nice howto for installing it on CentOS; I imagine this translates to Fedora without too much difficulty. If you do not need POP/IMAP access, skip the part about installing Dovecot. You should also look into setting up Postfix restrictions and greylisting to reduce spam. Be aware that using block lists (reject_rbl_client) can result in false positives. pbl.spamhaus.org is quite conservative; if it isn't enough, zen.spamhaus.org is a bit broader. The bl.spamcop.net list is in their words "aggressive" so may not be a good choice. I personally run a mailserver without a block list at all - greylisting and the Postfix sanity checks do a very good job on their own. |
