Java Newbie working with Mail Server
I'm a PHP developer whose unix knowledge is very poor, nearly none existing; and now needs to configure the mail server (also create email user accounts) and forward them to other email addresses.

It is a Red Hat linux 2.6.18... I access the server via ssh (as root user) and restarting the apache server is as far as i go.
Any help on finding out what email server I'm currently using, how to create an email account and how to forward its messages to another email address will be very appreciated.

Many thanks!
