Subject:   Installation of a mail server, not mua or mta

Here at my company we are tired of having to 
rely on our isp's mail server, so I want to 
set up my own. I have been using a FreeBSD box
for mirroring our web site (hosted on a public
isp), and told my boss that we can use it for
our own mail server also. I realize I need to 
make a DNS change, that's no big deal. I have 
a FreeBSD4.2 machine up and running, which has 
sendmail running by default, right? I installed 
the port qpopper. I have looked at several 
sites for info on just where to start, and the 
FreeBSD handbook on FreeBSD.org, but am still 
in the dark (they all talk about setting up a 
mail client). Could someone point me in the 
right direction? I would like to get the system 
running within a couple days. This machine is 
the only non-NT box in the company, and if I 
don't show a very compelling reason why we need 
it, it will be used as a NT workstation.
Please help,
