I have installed QMAIL , Vpopmail , courier-imap , Qmailadmin ,
Vqadmin, MySql , Spamassassin , clamav and Squirrelmail
under Redhat 9 / RHEL3 / FreeBSD 4.x 5.x each machine serve over 300 users.

> Squirrelmail because I know and like it.
> 3. Control Panel for the main Admin to add the domains that will be
> on the server.
> 4. Virtualization so that each domain can have an "admin" or "steve"
> if they want as their logins.
> 5. Must run on a RHEL ES 4 or 3 server.
> 6. MailScanner/SpamAssassin with a virus scanner. For a normal
> installation of a server, I can install these with no problem. It

> 1. Can't install the program, Control Panel, on our own server.
> 2. Cost to much
> 3. Has a monthly charge to use it
> 4. Want a per domain charge, which would again...cost to much since
> we have about 1000 domains.
> 5. Won't work as just an email server. It wants to be the whole

> move the email off to a separate server because of the load on the
> server due to 10's of thousands of emails that our clients get and
> receive daily.

> it only runs on qmail and, if possible, I would rather use sendmail.
