Xmail is supposed to be one of the better solutions for SMTP & POP3. I'm trying to setup local SMTP relay to my domain SMTP to improve local performance & POP3 download with filtering (on ubuntu). So far I've found documentation severely lacking & cryptic. crazy.gif I'm not a neophyte to *NIX, domain email configuration or networking... Even basic details like the SETSUID bit must be set for the xmail sendmail to work is missing from the official documentation. (I found that buried in one of the 3rd party basic setup guides) I thought a good starting point would be to get sendmail running and at least be able to get some response from SMTP. So far I have only succeeded in wasting time....

Is there a real document for Xmail written in a logical way with troubleshooting info? If I can't find some answers than I'm throwing away the "elegant" solution for 2 separate apps that are easier to deal with...

Sorry - there is only the original manual, this forum and some howtos here an there.

The manual assumes some deeper knowledge about SMTP and POP protocols, which has to be gathered somewhere else (e.g. Wikipedia and the RFC files). As an admin you will need this no matter if you run XMail or some other server.
