Can Rasberry Pi do the following?
Recently I set up a full webmail solution under guidance from someone who has done a dozen of them before, and it was pretty full on in terms of configuring all the moving parts.
On the backend I used:
- SAN for the mailstore.
- Dovecot for IMAP access (SSL & POP)
- Postfix as the MTA
- SpamAssassin, Amavis, ClamAV for virus checking.
- postgrey for blocking spammers.
- A bunch of SQL databases.
On the frontend I used:
- Roundcubemail for webmail client.
- Maia webinterface for managing quarantined messages with viruses
- Postfixadmin for managing e-mail domains and e-mail addresses.
- SendmailAnalyzer for sysadmin reports.
Both the frontend and backend servers where running Linux High Availability.
All servers had management:
- SNMP (Nagios)
- logrotate/rsyslog
- puppet
- ntp
- package management
As I said, lots of "moving" software parts but it worked extremely well once I got everything setup perfectly.
Best thing is all the software is free
.
Now I've also used MS-Exchange and was once a fan of it but not now for lots of reasons.
If you can do the above with Rasberry Pi I would be very impressed.
