My MailServer

Since ClarkConnect Community Edition is only gave 10 Mailboxes, so i have to learn how to make a Mail Server by myself.

I built this Mail Server based on these links :

• Perfect Server Ubuntu8.04 LTS ( Step 5, 7, 8, 9, 10, 13 - 20 )
• Courier help in doing Maildir setup
• Squirrel Mail help
• Amavis-Clamav-Spam Assassin help
• sudo apt-get install clamav ( from terminal )
• PostGrey help
  
• Some Squirrel plugins if you want to

I lost my Mysql password ...but it can be recovered by doing ;

1. Open Terminal then type sudo /etc/init.d/mysql stop
2. then run : mysqld_safe --skip-grant-tables &
3. you will be able to login as root with no password by : mysql -uroot mysql
   
4. Then run : UPDATE user SET password=PASSWORD("abcd") WHERE user="root"; ( abcd means your new password for root )
5. then run : FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
6. Now you can login by : mysql -uroot -pabcd mysql

How to install Squirrelmail plugins ?

1. Go to Squirrel plugins site to pick a plugins
2. Download it
3. Extract it to /usr/share/squirrelmail/plugins
4. Open terminal, run : sudo squirrelmail-configure
5. Select option 8
6. Select the number of plugins that you wanted to run
   
7. type Q to quit ( save before you quit by press S )
   

Next, i add these lines into /etc/postfix/main.cf

• mailbox_size_limit = 51200000 { mailbox size approx = 50MB }
  
• message_size_limit = 5120000 { message size + attachments approx = 5MB }
