Not sure if this is the right place to post. Anyone know how to setup a mail server and what software I can use? I am running Apache to host my site.
thanks

Jump to PostFirst thing you need is a domain and DNS Service. Also, make sure your ISP doesn't block mail from a dynamic assigned IP address.
After this, you'll be ready to start. You going windows or linux?
Jump to PostFor Unix, either Qmail or Exim are my recommended MTAs (mail transfer agents).

Jump to PostPersonally, I would recommend qmail with qmailadmin installed so it is easy to manage the accounts, more information can be found here:
