IMAP Server

[craigad]

Just need some advice on which IMAP server to use.
The reason for using IMAP is that I can keep all email centrally located for ease of backup.

I also need to tie this in with a 'webmail' function, so that off site users are able to pick up mail from any browser.

Cheers

What distro are you using? All distros come with atleast 1 imap server. If you installed the package that came with your distro you should have a functioning IMAP server now. If not you could simply install the package from your cd's or google search for 1 of the above and find the download and install instructions.

You need an MTA too: postfix, sendmail etc(again usually packaged with your distro). Then go to sourceforge.net and search for some webmail software. Neomail is a pretty good free one. You can google for Neomail to find the download site.
