Setting Up an Email Server After Setting up ISPconfig

Hello, how would I go about this please and how would I get ISPConfig to recognise and work with any steps..

Thanks

 

If you follow the ISPConfig Perfect Server Tutorial, you have set up an e-mail server.
To make it work properly, you also have to make DNS name service entries for the e-mail server.

To use this Tutorial successfully for a properly working e-mail server
you need
- a host where you install ISPConfig (and an Operating System)
- I recommend 2 GB memory with 4 GB swap, should be enough for mail server.
- host has a fixed IP-address
- host must have Internet connection with port 25 open both ways
- you must get host reverce DNS name service PTR record that matches hosts FQDN
- host must have A record for its IP-address (or AAAA if using IPv6)
- you must create MX record to DNS name service for the host

 

Thanks for this. Unfortunately I missed out the setting up a mail server part. I get all of your points above but the question is, what specific steps do I need to take to set up a mail server and have ispconfig recognise it on a working ispconfig install?

Thanks.

 

Thanks Till,
I've ended up moving myself forward onto Buster, any differences between that and the perfect server tutorial for Deb Stretch? Thanks

 

hehe - I just wanted to thank you for everything Till, you've been a Godsend to me over the years
