What is the best free pop3/smtp email server?

I want to experiment with a home email server of my own, but I can't seem to find a free server. Any suggestions?

What is the best free pop3/smtp email server?
Get any modern Linux distro, such as Fedora or Ubuntu. Most of them include some sort of mail server (MTA) with pop3/smtp that you can choose to include during initial installation.





The most used mail servers today are:





qmail :: http://www.qmail.org


Postfix :: http://www.postfix.org


Courier :: http://www.courier-mta.org


Cyrus :: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu





All of them are not user-friendly though, so you'll need to configure them manually via configuration files, though web hosting software such as cPanel will allow to configure some of these via web interface.





Good luck !
