==== Future Plans ====

* Add additional Squirrelmail plugins.

The primary intent of the Amahi Mail System is to allow you to pull all ISP email into your server. Keep in mind this is still under development.

* If you use the free ones (i.e. user.yourhda.com, [http://www.no-ip.org no-ip.org]), you will have to masquerade your email address as your ISP (i.e. myhda@yourisp.com). This will ensure you can receive email replies from those you send from your HDA.

==== Tips ====

* To permanently change your hostname from '''localhost.localdomain''', see this [http://www.labtestproject.com/using_linux/permanently_change_hostname_on_fedora article].

Here's the sequence of events to get the virtual email server up and running:

# Restart your HDA so it's fresh for the install. This is not required, just a recommendation.

# To uninstall, run the '''uninstall-virtual-mail-1.6.sh''' script.

You should now be able to log in to your account via webmail. There will be 2 messages, one is a welcome and the other is a SPAM test to show it's working. I forgot to mention that you can access the mail server from any email client as well within your network. Unfortunately, there is currently no front-end for administering accounts, so you will have to modify the database via phpMyAdmin or Adminer.
