Thanks for the replys (both Roger and Stuart)

I think i will give postfix a try, it seems to be well documented. I 
wont be hosting for many users, a family setup ;)

Ive been reading on the postfix docs, and ill try to setup postfix first.

I have 3 domains pointing at this server, and i would like to receive 
mail for all of them. The machines hostname is moso.dk (so that will be 
myorigin i guess). Would it be easiest not to have real unix users for 
each mailbox, or the other way around?

I started with this: http://www.postfix.org/BASIC_CONFIGURATION_README.html

I then browsed to this: 
http://www.postfix.org/VIRTUAL_README.html#virtual_mailbox

I think I have to go there to add the different domains that are not 
moso.dk, right?

Just so I know if im on the right track ;)

Best regards
Søren
