we had a server with Hostway, and it was running ubuntu. The server also had Plesk installed, which did some funny things. We had several websites on that server, and many email addresses. Then we changed servers. Now we have a server through Rackspace and it is also running Ubuntu. It also has Virtualmin installed, which generally does not impose as many unconventional changes on Ubuntu as Plesk did.
Rather than using Thunderbird to download my email (which is what I used to do) I've decided I'll start reading my email on the server. So I will ssh to the server and then use some email client, such as Alpine, to read the email. So I installed Alpine. I have an email account for "lawrence". The email address is lawrence @ krubner. Currently, when mail arrives for that account, it is stored here:
/home/krubner/homes/lawrence/Maildir/new
and then it is transferred to hear:
/home/krubner/homes/lawrence/Maildir/cur
When I start Alpine, while logged in as lawrence, Alpine automatically sets up an inbox for me here:
/home/lawrence/mail/
How do I get Alpine (or any other client) to read from the correct folder? I'm fairly sure the email package (the MTA) at work on this new server is Postfix. As near as I can tell, my email is held for 24 hours in this folder:
/home/krubner/homes/lawrence/Maildir/new
and then it gets transferred here:
/home/krubner/homes/lawrence/Maildir/cur
Alpine only lets me set one path for my Inbox, so I'm not sure what path I should set. If I use "cur" I will see all email 1 day late, but if I use "new" then I will miss email if I go a day without checking.

Normally I just use the backup feature in evolution but how would I go about saving my emails if I wanted to import them into another email program?I am going to install Mint 9 KDE on a separate partition and I have found evolution does not play nicely in KDE so was hoping there was a way of importing my evolution mail into Mints KDE email program.

I have sendmail setup and it works fine sending emails to outside email addresses. When I try and send email to our internal groupwise server the mail never gets there and I get an error message in the log user unknown.

I have a domain hosted with some remote host where I pay $10 a month and they provide me with, among other things, a bunch of email addresses. One of these addresses is my default address I use for everything and is blackberry@mydomain.com. I no longer have a Blackberry, I switched over to a HTC Hero with Google Android so I'm wondering how I could get that email address pushing emails out to my phone. Android supports Exchange but the licenses are too expensive for me. Is there an Ubuntu alternative to make this work somehow?

I've currently got a crontab line that looks like the following:
Code:
*/5 * * * * /usr/bin/php -q /etc/backend/cron.php | mail -s "Cron script output" whiteydude@gmail.com
The script works fine - it runs every 5 minutes and checks if certain environmental variables are set in place - if they are, it prints an output. If they're not, it dies.
The problem is that when it dies, it still sends me a blank email - one every 5 minutes, every time the cron job runs.
telling it not to send if it's blank?
I'm assuming some type of dirty awk script could do this, but I don't really know my shell well enough to do that.
I'm not good at putting these things into words, so let me write some psuedo code to explain what I mean:
Code:
*/5 * * * * /usr/bin/php -q /etc/backend/cron.php | if (STDOUT != '') { mail -s "Cron script output" whiteydude@gmail.com }
EDIT: Unfortunately I'm running on CentOS, so I can't use mail -E . Apparently that's a FreeBSD thing.

I want to setup an email client in order to send/receive emails, but since i am experiencing some issues with my ISP, i decided to setup an SMTP server with Postfix on my machine.The problem is that i can receive emails but i can not send.I read almost every thread in here refering to Postfix, but i could not find the problem on my configuration.So here it is..
Code:
# See /usr/share/postfix/main.cf.dist for a commented, more complete version
# Debian specific: Specifying a file name will cause the first
[code]....

In every other e-mail program that I have encountered in my years upon this Earth, including previous version of Evolution, when you open a message, the message in the main displays stops being displayed in bold, so that you can see it has been opened and read. In my new version, 2.32.3, the message header stays bold, even once you have opened the message. In order to make it stop being bold, you have to manually "Mark As Read" in the context menu.
I cannot see any option in the preferences that needs to be switched on so that this (until now) default behaviour of marking read messages as Read automatically, can resume. A Google of this problem just brings up messages on other forums, asking the same question but getting no answer. Has anyone on LinuxQuestions come across this Evolution feature before? Is this an Evolution bug, or is there a way of having opened messages Marked as Read automatically, which virtually every other e-mail application does anyway?!

Is there a Ubuntu email app (free or retail, doesn't matter) that will read in the Outlook Inbox/Sent/Contacts?
We have a really old computer with 10 years of Outlook business mail on it, and would like to switch it over to Ubuntu (no dual boot).

I use 'quoted' style for reply emails. I want to be able to intersperse my replies within a quoted reply i.e. if the email had three paragraphs, I'd like to be able to have my replies between each of the paragraphs. At the moment, I don't seem to be able to do anything other than delete from the quoted section - I try to simulate my requirements by cutting and then 'paste quotation', but this doesn't always work as sometimes Evolution adds too many levels of '> ' .

Is there a way to configure exim4 to bcc all new incoming emails to another email address? My boss wants a copy of all outgoing emails.
I know postfix can do this with a bcc_always option. Im sure exim4 should be able to also.

In my Windows environment, I use email client such as Microsoft Outlook to connect to our email server to send email with the following configuration:
Incoming server (POP3): 995 - (requires with SSL)
Outgoing server (SMTP): 465 - (use encrypted connection SSL)
[code]....
And the mail server requires user ID login and password.how do I setup a text command based email client in my Linux (Centos 5.1) to send out email through the existing email server above, which is in another machine? The email client has to be text command based because I need to use command line to send notification email from anothar application installed in my Linux (Centos 5.1) Since the email client will only be used to send email notification, I don't require setting up of an email server in my linux.

Using CentOS. I have a cron setup to run this command: Code: /var/test.sh | mail -s "Test Cron" mr182@somewhere.com The email is sent but the output of the script is not in the email body, it's just blank. I know there is some output because there are some echo statements in the script.I don't want to get an email for all cronjobs, just this one.

What i want to do is to send a copy of all emails to Another server (server2.domain.com) for redundancy.Can postfix be configured to send copies out to both?

Debian 5, apache 2.2 I've got Apache up and hosting multiple sites. Each site will have a php contact me page that will simply dump an email to a fixed address. What program should i be using to accomplish this? I've used nullmailer before but that assumes you have a fixed smarthost somewhere which I don't.

I have recently setup a new mail server and have simulated sending and receiving on the new email server. The new email server will replace the primary one.I would like to setup the new email server in parallel with the existing one.This way i can observe issues that might occur and be aware of what could go wrong. I want to received mail to be delivered to both mail servers at the same time.I would like to use postfix, exim i find a bit to difficult to understand.I have thought of using transport maps, the only problem is that you can only forward mail to one server at a time using transport maps.I think recipient_bcc_maps and sender_bcc_maps could work, i would just like ideas of how i can do this.

I am thinking about buying a domain name and hosting my web server.
I have seen pricing from $8 to $30 a year. Any favorites from fellow ubunters? Also this whole "whois" thing scares me, if I am correct my information I enter when buying the domain is enter into some big pool of information. People can find this information out and dig up important information. url Can I prevent this with private Whois or how do I set it up? This website examples some of my fears with this whole WhoIs thing, url whois/Private-Whois.html Does most/all domain registers come with email or just email forwarding or both? How does that work? At this moment, my only question about Web Hosting is how do I get Website Statistics as in: Stats, web analytics, web traffic stats and more? I will be web hosting through Ubuntu 9.10 gnome.
