New page

Set up [[POP3]], [[IMAP]] & [[SMTP]] [[Server]]

==Ubuntu 16.04==

apt-get install apache2 php7.0 php7.0-xmlrpc php7.0-mysql php7.0-gd php7.0-cli \
php7.0-curl mysql-client mysql-server dovecot-common dovecot-imapd \
dovecot-pop3d postfix squirrelmail squirrelmail-decode

Inform Apache about the presence of SquirrelMail:

cp /etc/squirrelmail/apache.conf /etc/apache2/conf-enabled/squirrelmail.conf

==Older Ubuntu==

sudo locale-gen id_ID.UTF-8

apt-get install apache2 php5 php5-xmlrpc php5-mysql php5-gd php5-cli \
php5-curl mysql-client mysql-server dovecot-common dovecot-imapd \
dovecot-pop3d postfix squirrelmail squirrelmail-decode

Ensure Dovecot supports [[imap]], usually the default is okay:

vi /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf

protocols = imap pop3

Inform [[Apache]] about the presence of [[Squirrelmail]]:

cp /etc/squirrelmail/apache.conf /etc/apache2/conf.d/squirrelmail.conf

For Ubuntu 14.04 use:

cp /etc/squirrelmail/apache.conf /etc/apache2/conf-enabled/squirrelmail.conf

==SquirrelMail Configuration==

Configure [[Domain]] [[Squirrelmail]]:

/usr/sbin/squirrelmail-configure

2 -> 1 -> domain.id -> S -> Q

For Ubuntu version 11.04, edit [[Dovecot]] configuration:

vi /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf

mail_location = mbox:~/mail:INBOX=/var/mail/%u

For Ubuntu version 11.10 and above, edit [[Dovecot]] configuration:

vi /etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-mail.conf

mail_location = mbox:~/mail:INBOX=/var/mail/%u

Restart [[Server]]:

/etc/init.d/dovecot restart
/etc/init.d/apache2 restart
/etc/init.d/postfix restart

Restart [[Server]] in Ubuntu 14.04:

service dovecot restart
/etc/init.d/apache2 restart
/etc/init.d/postfix restart

[[Webmail]] can be accessed through:

http://ip-address-server/squirrelmail

==SMTP Postfix Configuration==

Ideally, the [[SMTP]] [[Server]] [[Postfix]] should be informed about the domain, relayhost, and local IP:

vi /etc/postfix/main.cf

mydestination = school, localhost.localdomain, localhost, '''school.sch.id'''
relayhost = '''smtp.telkom.net'''
mynetworks = 127.0.0.0/8 [::ffff:127.0.0.0]/104 [::1]/128 '''192.168.0.0/16'''

==Fetching email to INBOX==

Send email using telnet to port 25:

telnet localhost 25

helo test.com
mail from: <test@test.com>
rcpt to: <user@domain.com>
data
From: <test@test.com>
To: <user@domain.com>
Subject: test

test

.

quit

Replace user@domain.com with the email you created. For example, victim.com:

telnet localhost 25

helo test.com
mail from: <test@test.com>
rcpt to: <onno@victim.com>
data
From: <test@test.com>
To: <onno@victim.com>
Subject: test

test

.

quit

===Error Syslog===

In Ubuntu 11.10, if you encounter an error like:

ERROR: Could not complete request.
Query: SELECT "INBOX"
Reason Given: [SERVERBUG] Internal error occurred. Refer to server log for more information. [2012-03-12 11:21:18]

apt-get install mailutils
mail username

For '''username''' do:

mkdir /home/username/mail
mkdir /home/username/mail/.imap
touch /home/username/mail/.imap/INBOX
chown username.username /home/username/mail/

===IPv6 Problem===

If there is an issue with IPv6 add to main.cf:

inet_protocols = ipv4
