Second the recommendation for courier. We have exim / courier [pop imap pops imaps] using maildir formats and controlled from mysql for virtual users accepting mail for about 20 domains.
We did compare with Cyrus, but that fell down on integration with exim. This is the list dpkg -l *courier* | grep ii shows: ii courier-authda 0.37.3-2.3 Courier Mail Server authentication daemon ii courier-authmy 0.37.3-2.3 MySQL Authentication for Courier Mail Server ii courier-base 0.37.3-2.3 Courier Mail Server Base System ii courier-imap 1.4.3-2.3 IMAP daemon with PAM and Maildir support ii courier-imap-s 1.4.3-3.1 IMAP daemon with SSL, PAM and Maildir suppor ii courier-pop 0.37.3-2.3 POP3 daemon with PAM and Maildir support ii courier-pop-ss 0.37.3-3.1 POP3 daemon with SSL, PAM and Maildir suppor ii courier-ssl 0.37.3-3.1 Courier Mail Server SSL Package Remember that pop3 by default is insecure in that user/passwords pass in the clear over the net - DON'T make your mail users real users with shell access or you are opening a large number of doors and putting out a nice big 'Hack here!' flag. A little tcpdump on your segment will get you a nice list of all the users / passwords for all your pop users - use pop-ssl instead. regards Jeff > -----Original Message----- > From: DEFFONTAINES Vincent [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: 06 December 2002 11:29 > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: RE: pop mail recommendations > > > I personnally used courrier-pop which did good, but never did > I compare it > with others. > > > > -----Original Message----- > > From: Ted Roby [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > > Sent: Friday 6 December 2002 11:51 > > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Subject: pop mail recommendations > > > > > > I have setup exim to host my domain's SMTP services. > > > > I am now looking for something to host POP3 on the same > Debian potato > > box. > > > > I am asking the security list because that is my primary interest. > > I would like to find something stable, reasonably known to > be secure, > > perhaps specifically recommended for debian servers, and > can run as a > > stand-alone daemon. > > > > Would any of you care to make a recommendation? > > > > > > --- > > Random fortune: > > > > A long-forgotten loved one will appear soon. > > > > Buy the negatives at any price. > > > > > > -- > > To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > with a subject of "unsubscribe".
