I've installed a server using Minstall script, however I want to also install Squirrelmail and all the necessary stuff to send and receive email and have a webmail.

Is there any tutorial explainning this? Thans.

You do realize that Debian 6 is nearing end of life? And that various thing may break when you try to upgrade it to Debian 7? You should build on Debian 7 now.

I suggest you do not build your own mail server. There is a lot of things you must do, and it isn't easy. You are better off paying google to host a small business mail account.

If you need bulk sending, I suggest using mandrill.com

Thanks for all the replies.
I don't want to send any bulk mailing, I just want to learn how to setup my own email server. Thanks for the suggestions!

So, we shouldn't try to do things that are difficult and instead pay commercial providers instead? Can't say I agree with that thinking.
