Operating Systems Linux Red Hat Mail solution for Linux - Postfix Post 302379709 by fpmurphy on Friday 11th of December 2009 03:27:30 PM

Actually, while Postfix has many configuration files and can be endlessly configurated, getting a basic Postix MTA (Mail Transport Agent) running is quite easy.

Here is the relevant section of the RHEL 5.4 Deployment Guide which discusses how to setup Postix. RHEL 5.4 Deployment Guide Section 24.3.2

As well as an MTA, you need an MAA (Mail Access Agent) like Dovecot which handles protocols like IMAP, IMAPS, POP3 and POP3S, and an MUA (Mail User Agent) like Evolution.

NAME
maildirkw - set maildir message keywords SYNOPSIS
maildirkw [-c] [-l] [-a] [-r] {maildir} {message} [keyword...] maildirkw [-c] {-L} {maildir} DESCRIPTION
maildirkw modifies the Courier IMAP server compatible maildir message keywords. This command allows an easy way to set or clear custom IMAP keywords associated with a particular message. maildir is the pathname to a maildir, or a maildir folder. The -L option lists all messages in the maildir, and their associated keywords. message specified which message's keywords should be set. One or more keywords specifies a list of keywords to be set for this message. The specified list of keywords replaces any keywords presently set for the message, unless the -a or the -r option is specified. The -a option adds the keyword to existing keywords that are set for message. The -r removes keywords from message, leaving any remaining keywords set in place. The -l should be used if the Courier IMAP server's configuration file has the IMAP_USELOCKS option set. -l enables a compatible locking mechanism to update the message's keywords. -c enables case-sensitive keywords. IMAP keywords are normally case insensitive. -c needs to be used if the SMAP1[1] protocol extension is used, which uses case sensitive keywords. SEE ALSO
