Mail Server

Ok, well it's my first time manually setting up a mail server...just need to be pointed in the right direction.

So far I've completed this guide successfully, I just don't know....where to go from here, like how to actually access the mail, send mail, setup a mailing list, etc.

If you installed Dovecot correctly, you can simply connect to your mail server from any IMAP-capable email client: Thunderbird, Evolution, KMail, etc.

Again, this won't work if something's messed up, but you should be able to point to your server in your client's SMTP settings.

This takes some extra software. Most lists (including Arch's) use Mailman.
