Re: mail server setup questions



* Jim Stapleton <stapleton.41@xxxxxxxxx> [2007-09-04 18:03:20 -0400]:
I need a mail server to take incoming mail, and provide a pop3 (or
better yet, SSLed POP3) connection.

I would second the recommendation for Postfix -- and Dovecot for POP.

Could you all suggest to me what you use and a good web site for
configuring it as it would be done in FreeBSD?

The Postfix documentation is very thorough and complete, and that is all
you should need. Their website has some links to various HOWTOs:
