Snuffs99 Posted October 31, 2016 Share Posted October 31, 2016 They are a pain the fooking arse IMHO.......I actually can't think of a more daunting task at this moment in time tbh mate so i wish you all the luck in the world. Very negative i know but i've only ever had problems with mail servers, they are like my nemesis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Utterchaos Posted October 31, 2016 Author Share Posted October 31, 2016 Sounds just the answer I wanted lol I not doing it haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snuffs99 Posted October 31, 2016 Share Posted October 31, 2016 PMSL, thats the attitude. Love it. On a serious note mate don't let me put you off but they are not easy, certainly not if you've never done one before. There will no doubt be a cloud based package that does the job but don't be fooled as that sort of defeats the point of your own mail server. Who knows maybe someone knows of a dead easy way but i've yet to find it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoponbaby Posted October 31, 2016 Share Posted October 31, 2016 Did one years ago using qmail which happily ran with practically no maintenance for a few years but not something I've looked into since. Even just running exchange in house these days seems to have gone out of the window in favour of using office 365 etc.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neoburner Posted November 2, 2016 Share Posted November 2, 2016 Go with Business 365 - Will save you the headache and its cheap as hell! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoponbaby Posted November 2, 2016 Share Posted November 2, 2016 http://qmailrocks.thibs.com Qmail still being given guided installs despite being years old, just shows how simple and stable it was and allegedly has never been compromised. Almost tempted to dig out the old server it was installed on and fire it up test it .....I did say almost!! Lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rusty Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 Exchange isn't too difficult, but I'm guessing they're not going to want the costs! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
