The provision of email services requires setting up an email server that controls sending and delivery of essages. Once such a server is set up, it is expected to run continuously without any problems. Aninterruption will affect communication and the work of many in the organization. Hence, reliability is amajor concern for email server software. Other concerns are security and performance. Several robustFOSS email servers such as Sendmail (www.sendmail.org) and Postfix (www. postfix.org) are availableand are being deployed successfully in many organizations, including educational institutions. Theycompare favourably with proprietary email servers such as Microsoft Exchange, are simpler to deployand require fewer computing resources.
