Install and access webmin
If it is a virtual machine change the network mode to NAT to access internet or make sure your LAMP machine has internet access
Install Dovecot service. It will be our entry IMAP/POP3 mail server
by just searching in webmin you can install Dovecot
- Install BIND DNS service.
Configure the DNS server
First. We created the "Master Zone": miempresa.com and configure the following records
A: ServerMail.mydomain.com 192.168.10.2
MX: mydomain.com ServerMail.mydomain.com (10)
Create the "inverse area" of the previous domain
- When resolving a name ask a DNS server of the Internet, for example in 8.8.8.8
SMTP server settings
- First create user 'mailuser1' with password 'a' group 'users'
Postfix server > Configuration of general options:
What domain name to use for outgoing mail: mydomain.com
What domain name to use for incomming mail: mydomain.com
Send outgoing mail by machine: Deliver directly
Number of machines of this Internet mail system: Default
local networks: 127.0.0.0 / 8, 192.168.10.0/24
Test that its working. We can do it from Webmin > Servers > Reading Usuarios mails
just send an email to your email and check that you receive, you may be spam.
