Thanks for the link. I managed to piece enough information online to get 
it working. I now have a working debian/postfix/maildrop/courier 
imap/squirrelmail server running. I love having this system running as I 
am already enjoying the linux admin way. I love seeing the log files and 
the pflogsum script is giving me more info about my server than I ever 
had before.

I am now running into a couple of problems
1) I wanted to install spamassassin. I created a Spam folder in each 
users Maildir folder to put suspect messages. I am having a hard time 
figuring out how it fits together though. It seems I need to add some 
information to my maildrop since postfix sends messages to maildrop. I 
am not sure how this fits and what I need to get maildrop to check 
postfix and then finish it out sending the message to the users Maildir. 
Anyone have a nice howto or link?

2) I am looking at implementing a groupware package. I am looking at 
opengroupware right now, but I am not sure. I need to be able to sync 
with MS PDAs (and it seems opengroupware only syncs with Palm) and I 
also not sure if I need openldap for managing opengroupware 
appropriately. I am trying to do this is baby steps and I would already 
need to figure out postgres in order to get it running. How important is 
ldap and can I get opengroupware to auth the same as imap?

Thanks for the help so far and I appreciate your interest in my little 
work project.

Rick
