- Postfix: sends too receives post service via the SMTP protocol. It volition alone relay post service on to other post service servers if the e-mail is sent past times an authenticated user, but anyone tin john send post service to this server for local delivery.
- Dovecot: Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 POP too IMAP server that manages local post service directories too allows users to log inward too download their mail. It also handles user authentication.
- Postgrey: Greylists incoming mail, requiring unfamiliar deliverers to hold off for a piece too so resend. This is ane of the improve tools for cutting downwardly on spam.
- Amavisd-new: a manager for organising diverse antivirus too spam checking content filters
- Clam Antivirus: A improve tool to Scan Emails
- SpamAssassin: for sniffing out spam inward emails.
- Postfix Admin: Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 proficient spider web interface to create produce Domain, Mailbox, Alias etc.
- RoundCube: Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 spider web post service customer tool.
