I would appreciate any advice on what mail Server to choose. This
would be my first experience installing and configuring an internal
mail server (No e-mail outside the LAN). Only to exchange mails
between Windows PC’s inside my department (IP segment or subnet).
This is a small intranet project where a Windows DNS server is already
running but is not in my possibilities to manage it. I’ll be using a
Debian etch box to accomplish this intranet project.
I agree with the multiple suggestions to just let Debian install Exim.
Getting the aglomeration of Postfix (or Sendmail), plus amavis, plus
spamassassin, etc. all working together takes more than a bit of doing.
It's worth doing if you handle large amounts of external traffic (I run
a bunch of email lists), but it is a royal pain.
Any harder than plugging amavis and spamassassin into Exim4?
