Just wondering what the recommended setup for mail is for a FreeBSD system.
The two I've looked at so far(Qmail, postfix) both seem to have shortcomings.
QMail is a beast to configure and maintain since it isn't installed only with ports
postfix you can run with nothing but ports, but some of it's support tools (postfixadmin) seem tied to mysql, which virtualmin doesn't support.
Am I missing anything or perhaps I'm offbase on some of these assumptions?
The new virtualmin Pro install script sets up postfix nicely for you in FreeBSD.
I've got a FreeBSD server running now with VMPro and Postfix in the standard config and it's ready to move from testing to deployment.
