I'm getting ready to migrate from Tiger Server on a G4 to Snow Leopard (not server) on a Mac Mini.
I want mail service for a few Macs, a PC, and a couple of "Audrey" internet appliances on my local domain. Except for the Audreys, which are POP-only, I could use an all-IMAP system.
What do I need to install? I only need to handle one domain (though I'd like the ability to handle others). Thanks for any tips.
Also: what's a good setup for running a local DNS to replace OS X Server's?
The simplest mail setup for more than one domain is the basic mailserver setup with postfix, dovecot, postfixadmin and roundcube. Look at the doc pages and start from there. However I'm still testing the setup on Snow Leopard so you might be better of waiting for another week till I have tested and got everythign working under snow leopard.
For DNS you can use Bind, is installed but you need to be an expert to configure it. If someone else knows a better solution I would like to know as well!
