postfix doesn't do POP3, just SMTP. If you need POP3, you would install qpopper or another POP3-providing thing.<span class=""><br>

dovecot or courier-imap for IMAP. I use courier-imap, but dovecot is quite similar. You can use mysql for storing the mail users and their passwords. If you have lots of users who don't have shell accounts and need to change those users' info frequently, then using mysql makes sense. Otherwise, using standard Unix usernames/passwords is a bit easier.<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>
