Installation of hMailServer

| No Comments

I installed hMailServer as my Email server last week. Let me keep a log of my installation.

Step 1.
Download hMailServer from the official site. The latest stable version is hMailServer 4.3 - Build 248. Download here. File size 3,568KB.

Setp 2.
Install hMailServer by double-clik the file downloaded to launch the setup.
The package has a built-in MySQL database. Because I have a MySQL server running on my Windows 2003 server, I select to use an external database.

After installation, run the hMailServer Database Setup wizard.
And I set a password which will be needed later.

Step 3.
I use external MySQL, so I have tu run the appropriate script from the hMailServerAddonsService dependencies folder. It is located on the installation folder.

Step 4.
DNS configuration.
I set it up already. Just MX record.


It looks very simply.
