EIT Exchange email server setup
Reading email is like real estate, it's all about location, location, and . . . location!
| Location: | Mail Tool: (Pine/Mail/Mutt) | Mail Client: (Mozilla/Netscape/Thunderbird/Entourage/Outlook) |
|---|---|---|
| In the department | Just run your favorite tool | Just run your favorite tool |
| Outside the department | SSH in and run your favorite tool (Windows help with SSH) | Option 1: Set up an SSH Tunnel (in Windows) Option 2: Use VPN |
Whether you're using pine, outlook, thunderbird, to train spamassassin you need to save uncaught spam in a seperate folder on the mail server.
