Hello,
topic is probably not so precise. What I want is the following: - I've got some Email/IMAP account. - My mail is hosted on a server by GMX. - I've got too many Emails on the host. - I don't want to loose any of the emails. - So I will have to install my own mail server, fetching all my emails from the host. - The mail server will then have to interact with my providers server like a client, working as a server for me.
I'm sure there're some good servers, but I don't know which one - works as expected, - and is easy to configure.
Any help appreciated.
Kind regards
Peter
Hey Peter, Personally I have always been happy with exim and dovecot for local mail servers. Regarding downloading your mail from your remote provider regularly, I would personally use fetchmail for that - it sounds exactly what you're looking for (https://sourceforge.net/projects/fetchmail/). Hope that helps, Dan
