How can I setup a local mac mail server? I have a static IP now... What do I do next?
Ok so let me break down my situation quickly:
-I bought last week a static IP address.
-I bought a domain name from some company. Lets just call it blueberry.com 🙂
When I still had a dynamic IP my mail was being served by my domain provider.
Now that we have a static IP, they have nothing to do with providing us mail anymore (so they say), and the accounts that I made 2 weeks ago dont work anymore (ie. john@blueberry.com). They said they also made an MX record on their end (not sure exactly what that is or means but just to give you that info..)
So how do we get mail on our server now? How does this work exactly? How do I create new accounts? It was so easy when we had a dynamic IP cuz then I just simply went into the cPanel of the domain site and created new mail accounts in like 3 seconds! How do I do this with my new static IP? I have the Server app btw that I purchased from the App Store. Don't know exactly how it works, clueless really.
Any help is appreciated! Thank you! 🙂
