This tutorial will explain how to run a mail server with virtual domains and users using a MySQL backend to store email informations.
Postfix will be our SMTP server, Dovecot will be handling IMAP (optionally one could configure POP3 also) so that users can retrieve their email.
Another tutorial will cover SPAM fighting using DSPAM based on this implementation (yet to be done).
This tutorial was done on Debian Etch using postfix 2.3.8-2etch4 and 1.0.rc15-2etch4.
