MT Installation

From The Network People, Inc.

The installation process assumes that you already have a server built, the OS installed, and the system is adequately configured to serve out the rest of its life as an email server.

If you are new to email systems, you might consider reading through the Mail Toaster FAQ. There is some useful info there on Proper sizing of disk partitions and other considerations that affect how you might configure your server.

If you expect to have a very busy mail server (ie, serving for thousands of users) or are using under-powered hardware (ie, embedded systems) then you will almost certainly want to read up on Freebsd Tuning and optimize your system.

If you haven't already, it would be wise to get your DNS configured properly.

When your server is ready, begin with step 1.
