Linux VPS3 - E-mail Service


As a core service, your private server supports mail services by means of the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP), Post Office Protocol (POP or POP3), and Internet Message Access Protocol (IMAP or, more precisely, IMAP4).
  • SMTP provides a standard method to send email messages between servers.
  • POP provides a standard method to retrieve email from a mail server.
  • IMAP provides a standard method of accessing electronic mail or bulletin board messages kept on a shared mail server.
These standards are maintained and updated as Internet industry standards by the Internet Engineering Task Force (http://www.ietf.org/).

Procmail and SpamAssassin

Your private server supports the Procmail email delivery agent and the SpamAssassin email filter.
