Greetings kind debianites, I'm in the process of learning MTA admin. My head is about to explode.
I'm wanting to setup a Debian box that'll suck down pop email from an ISP for a few local users and then serve those email up via pop3 or imap on the LAN. Following some advice I received on this list, I installed fetchmail, courier-imap, courier-pop and exim4. I then found that exim4 and courier like different mailbox formats. I couldn't find a way to make exim4 work with courier's maildir format, so I figured I'd replace exim4 with courier-mta. Now fetchmail and courier-mta are fighting (courieresmtp throws an ERROR 513, syntax error, when fetchmail tries to forward an email) over addresses like "[EMAIL PROTECTED]". So, I'm stuck. I haven't had any luck in figuring out how to fix courier and I don't know how to fix exim4. Any sage bits of advice are appreciated. Eric. PS, I hope you mail admins get paid a LOT of money for what you do. I'm finding email setup and admin is very complex. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
