IMAP Server Requirement
I hope I'm asking this question in the right place. If not please let
me know where to go.
I work for a fairly small company who, like a lot of companies, relies
heavily on email. For reasons that unfortunately I had no decision in,
and cannot contractually change in the next two years, we are tied into
using a POP3 email service. The server has great uptime and great
throughput, so no worries there. However, it has very little (read:
none!) disk space reserved for email. This causes us to have to set a
server storage limit of no more than 20Mb for each user. This is
suitable for most people, but those of us in the IT department and our
mobile users would be better served by an IMAP server with larger
amounts of storage.
I'd like to then setup an IMAP server on another machine, with more
storage, and have it pull email from the regular POP server and make it
available to a limited number of users. It will be hosted inside our
network, with no outside access, except through already configured
remote means.
What software do I need to use to make this happen? I've read about a
number of different pieces of software but can't figure out what would
be best. I don't want you to walk me through it step by step, just
point me in the right direction and give me a push!
Thanks,
Ropetin.
