Packt is pleased to announce Linux Email, a new book that covers everything that users need to know in order to set up their own Linux server. Written by professional Linux administrators, this book is a simple step-by-step guide to setting up a Linux email server using the most popular free Open Source tools such as PostFix, ProcMail, SpamAssassin, ClamAV, and others

Linux is a free and open source software collaboration whereby typically all the underlying source code can be used, freely modified, and redistributed, both commercially and non-commercially, by anyone under the terms of the GNU GPL. Linux is predominantly known for its use in servers, although can be installed on a wide variety of computer hardware ranging from embedded devices, mobile phones and even some watches as well as supercomputers.

Linux Email helps users overcome the complexities involved in getting started with Linux. They can create mail filters, sort their incoming mail into separate folders, pre-process their mail, start any programs upon mail arrival and selectively forward certain incoming mail automatically to someone using Procmail.
