2/ Configure Postfix/Exim for inbound communications (single domain 
mail server) and tune parameters.
3/ Install Dovecot/Courier and configure to connect to local 
mailboxes.

domain/mailboxes.

follow along, please ensure you bring your netbook/laptop with you.

If you are thinking of attending please respond to daniel@xxxxxxxxxx 
by at least the Saturday before if possible to let me know so I can 
pass onto Martyn the number of virtual machines required on the day.

Many thanks

Dan

PS, a voluntary contribution would be highly appreciated to assist our
good friends at Madlab in their day to day running costs.
