I have a question about i-mscp.

DCan i-mscp manage multiple servers? I want my mail on its own server, the webserver on another, etc etc.  can i-mscp manage this? Or do I need to have i-mscp installed on each server?

Thanks.

If you're running Debian or Ubuntu, I recommend I-MSCP.  It's a web-based control panel which lets you add mail users, manage domains, etc similar to a web hosting company.  We're hosting several domains with lots of email addresses and never had a problem.  The installer is very accessible.  The web interface leaves a little to be desired, but works fine in Firefox and Lynx.  It uses Postfix and automatically downloads and installs packages, so it's best ran on a minimal system.  The control panel is isolated from Apache, so if your web server goes down, your control panel should stay up. 
  You can customize some aspects of what it installs.  http://i-mscp.net/ There is also Virtualmin which is part of Webmin, but I don't recommend it. 
  Webmin lets you customize most major mail servers with a web-based configuration, but I think it has too much bloat and isn't as accessible. 
Virtualmin is similar to a control panel, but again, much harder to use and less accessible.  http://www.webmin.com/  Having used Postfix, Exim and Qmail, I like Postfix and Qmail best.  I found Exim harder to configure, but the Debian packages automate much of it for you.

Yes and I don't recommend it.  It's not at all accessible with Lynx.  I don't remember if I tried it in Firefox, but I remember it was too complicated and I didn't like it.  If you want a similar feature set which is very accessible, try Synchronet.  It was a dial-up BBS package as was Citadel, but is now telnet and web-based.  It's natively built for Windows but runs on Linux and FreeBSD.  http://synchro.net/ _______________________________________________
