Virtual Users With Postfix, PostfixAdmin, Courier, Mailscanner, ClamAV On CentOS

Centos, Linux Add comments

A while ago I wrote an extensive ‘how to’ on installing Postfix, PostfixAmdin, Courier, Mailscanner, ClamAv on a Centos (redhat like) Linux OS. I tried to make the howto as complete as possible. I noticed how hard it was to find a good howto on setting up a mail server with a nice web interface, on a Centos OS. So after some testing and experimenting I decided to write my own howto.

I posted the whole howto on howtoforge.com.

Howtoforge.com is a website with the best howto’s on the internet,I find it an honor to finally contribute my little piece back to this large community.

    Maildrop is not working and i cant find the specifics of the maildrop configuration file (if there is any).
    The error message being “Invalid user specified”
    Debug with the command “maildrop -V 4 -d xxx@domain.com

    Did you created the vmail user??

    groupadd vmail -g 1001
    useradd vmail -u 1001 -g 1001

    And did you build maildrop with it?

    I have created a vmail user..

    When building rpm for maildrop, i was logged as a vmail user otherwise if there is a different way of building maildrop apart from the steps shown on your document.

    Hello,
    I have some difficulties getting the damn thing working, i’ve also sent you an email in howtoforge, but maybe you’ll notice it quicker from here. Can you contact me by email:
    marek@trekker.ee

    Hello Tim,

    Since you have cut-pasted large sections of my CentOS/Postfix guide, perhaps you should include a credit in your guide?
