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.

With the help of various screen shots and clear explanation, this book takes a practical, step-by-step approach to working with email servers. This book begins with a discussion as to why users should consider hosting their own email and goes on to look at providing web access which will enable users to access their email out of the office.
