Re: Mail server

bah, it works, but it seems to interfere with port 80, so not sure how it would work with your web server.

let me try to change the port...

ahh, you can change the port. i had a bit of trouble using alot of the ports with firefox, but 2095 worked fine.

Re: Mail server

i installed hmailserver and i couldn't work out how to set it to pickup my external IP :S

Re: Mail server

In 3.3, hMailServer doesn't support fetching e-mails from an external server. Support for this will be added in version 4.0 which will be released in a couple of weeks.
