# Create a web app in Amahi named '''ams'''.
# Open a terminal window, become '''root''', and navigate to '''''/var/hda/web-apps/ams''''' directory.
# Download [httphttps://dl.getdropboxdropboxusercontent.com/u/1380867/mail-server-1.80.8.tar.gz zip mail-server-1.8.8.tar0.gzzip] (sha1sum 950bd51ecedf1c86d12c4830320f458502917a126a2cb6aa290644c9faba1fe89bf13dd9e185ef21) to this directory and extract it into '''''html''''' directory of '''''ams''''' (archive [http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/1380867/FilesList.html content]).
# Ensure you recursively change ownership of the files to apache:users.
# Need to make a directory called '''''elevated''''' in '''''ams'''''. Copy mail-setup.sh and del-maildir.sh to that location.

==== Tips ====
* Should your mail server hang up and stop working, you can most likely fix it with the following two scripts. Place them in '''''/var/hda/web-apps/ams/elevated''''' directory. You must run these as root user :
<blockquote>'''''start.sh''''' (execute stop.sh first):
{{Text|Text=/etc/init.d/systemctl start courier-authlib start.service;/etc/initsystemctl stop sendmail.d/sendmail stopservice;/etc/initsystemctl start postfix.d/postfix startservice;/etc/initsystemctl start saslauthd.d/saslauthd startservice;/etc/init.d/systemctl restart courier-authlib restart.service;/etc/init.d/systemctl start courier-imap start.service;
/usr/bin/freshclam;
spamassassin --lint;
sa-update --no-gpg;}}
'''''stop.sh''''' (run prior to start.sh):
{{Text|Text=/etc/init.d/systemctl stop courier-authlib stop.service;/etc/initsystemctl stop sendmail.d/sendmail stopservice;/etc/initsystemctl stop postfix.d/postfix stopservice;/etc/initsystemctl stop saslauthd.d/saslauthd stopservice;/etc/init.d/systemctl stop courier-imap stop.service;/etc/initsystemctl stop amavisd.d/amavisd stopservice;/etc/init.d/systemctl stop clamd.amavisd stop.service;rm -f /var/spool/amavisd/clamd.sock;}}
Ensure you set the permissions on both files:
{{Code|chown apache:users start.sh stop.sh
