I already have Postfix running and I happily read email on my server, but I'd like to read my email on my IMAP/SSL cellphone client. I've seen Courier, UW, and Cyrus, and perhaps there are others. Any recommendations, for or against?
Currently I'm the only user, but I host about a dozen friend's websites, and perhaps someday they too would like email, so I'd like to be able to grow into that, but I don't feel I need a database to support a huge number of clients. I support these virtual domains directly from Postfix.
Any other things I should be thinking about, or aware of?
Thanks in advance, Michael
Courier-IMAP is pretty easy to deal with. Cyrus can get.. uh.. out of hand, real easily. It's overkill for many situations. the guy that wrote courier is also very active on the courier-users mailing list too, which is a big plus.
uw-imap & the mbox format in general are outdated & sometimes dangerous, imo. back in the days where emails were nice & tiny, it worked a lot better..
