moin moin Keith,

postfix, dovecot, spamassassin is the combo I settled on many years ago.

You might be interested in a newish Dovecot feature: virtual folders. I've
been wanting that for my own mail server for decades. Still need to
schedule time to play with it.

Here are some postfix config links I found important enough to add to my
config file for easy reference :).

The codepoets link is no longer valid, but search for a copy of that page
as it's well worth the read.
