If you're running Debian, isn't it just a package to install using dplg
or apt or aptitude or synaptic or whatever you're using to install
packages? (I use aptitude interactively to install packages) Postfix
is available as a package for oldstable, stable, testing, unstable, and
experimental. YOu'll find it conflicts with exim, which Debian installs
by default, and so you'll probably have to uninstall exim. I believe
aptitude will figure that out by itself. If you're happy with exim,
though, you already have mail on your machine.
Unless you mean something different than I do by the words 'mail
server'.
