How to install Scalix on OpenSUSE 10.2

OpenSUSE 10.2 is not supported officially by Scalix, however here’s how you can skip that part and continue your installation:

./scalix-installer –override-release=suse101

If you opt for having your server relay through your ISP SMTP servers the official HOW TO is not that helpful. So I thought I will blog about it for my future reference and who knows may be somebody will benefit from it too!

vim /etc/mail/access

add the following line:

AuthInfo:your.smtpserver.net “U:you@your.smtpserver.net” “P:your_password” “M:DIGEST-MD5 PLAIN LOGIN”

Then edit this file:

vim /etc/mail/linux.mc

add following line:

define(`SMART_HOST’,`your.smtpserver.net’)dnl

then run

m4 /etc/mail/linux.mc > /etc/sendmail.cf

and restart your sendmail

/etc/init.d/sendmail restart

That’s it! Enjoy relaying!

Yahoo! to acquire Zimbra

I’ve blogged about Zimbra here and here. When I was thinking of migration our Exchange Server it was one of the options, but I didn’t go for it because it had way too many features. Many of them we just wouldn’t use it at all, at least in my previous company.

Ok, so Yahoo! bought Zimbra E-Mail Collaboration Suite for approximately $350 million! You can find more information here, here and here.

I guess, the giants like Yahoo! and Google just buying  any good software that’s in the market. The question is, which company will acquire which company? Yahoo! or Google?

Anyways, congrats to  Satish Dharmaraj, CEO of Zimbra, he is now officially multi-millionaire(if he wasn’t before)!
