Quality Assurance of mailserver?

May 14th, 2011 - 06:30 am ET by Lars Nielsen | Report spam
Hi list,

I am running a mailserver with exim, courier-pop, courier-imap and
squirrelmail. I has been running "fine" for about 18 months now. But how
can I assure my self and my customers that I deliver a good quality
mail-server? How can I best monitor the services to assure that there
are the desired uptime and response-times?

I am running on a lenny installation.

Regards
Lars Nielsen

I would recommend setting up another Debian box running Nagios to
monitor the services on the mail server as well as other machines on
your networks. Nagios is a tried and true piece of software and I have
done quite a number of installations and configurations (including
writing some custom plugins) of it to make it monitor what I want it
to. http://www.nagios.org
