There are not many gui interfaces for unix mail servers and none that I can think of that use wine. Look into something like webmin if you are using postfix or sendmail. But your best bet is to get a book and learn command line interface or read many of the how-to's out there. I am running postfix for several clients. I am not familiar with sendmail or QMail. But postfix is a very straight forward mail transfer agent. Linux in a Nutshell is a good book for learning commands. Running Linux is another Orielly book that has good information about linux. I saw the other day that there is a new Linux Systems Administrators Handbook. I have the Unix System Administrators Handbook and it is a good book, but outdated and does not delv into linux as much as I would like it too. I think the Linux Systems administration handbook would be better. You are probably sharing the mail directories using NFS or a SAN. So you will need to get up to speed on those technologies as well. Furthermore, you probably have MX records in your name server, so learning about mx records would be good to know too. If I were you, I would look for some mail groups that deal with sendmail or postfix. There are some very good groups out there with some very knowledgeble people who can get you started. Also, I would stay away from gui tools until you understand more of what is happening under the hood. I know the learning curve is painful, but you have a lot deeper knowledge of what is going on. I know hind sight is 20/20, but you should have made the "Linux Guru" leave you with documentation. You could also provision a fourth server for testing, and practicing, or another workstation. This would help you get up to speed. Randall On 2/23/07, Jose Salazar <jsalazar@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:
A guru in linux left the company I work for and he left me 3 linux mail servers which I am not so confident in using. THe company is looking to me to control it, and things are going wrong. I know some linux commands but not enough and it is driving me NUTS!!!!!!!!!!!. Can I install wine on it and use a GUI interface to better control the linux servers ?
