This guide will help you setup netqmail for all of these scenarios with a focus on remote access and encrypted communications the whole way through. Specifically, the packages this guide will help you with are netqmail, courier-imap, vpopmail, and horde/imp. These core packages will also bring in daemontools, ucspi-tcp, mysql, apache, and mod_php. netqmail provides the core mta functions, courier-imap provides remote retrieval services, vpopmail provides virtual domain management, and horde/imp provides webmail access. Before emerging anything, you will need the following USE variables enabled. If youve already emerged any of these packages, you may have to re-emerge them. USE=maildir ssl imap mysql. Additionally, if you want to use horde/imp for your webmail then you will need USE=nls before emerging mod_php. Note: Note: This guide is written in steps. If at anytime you feel your setup is complete, you do not need to continue. The last step of course is to commit yourself to the netqmail system. There are many other packages with which you could build your e-mail system. Now is the time to research and decide that netqmail is for you.
