Hi,
I'm trying to find out a way to set up a standalone mailserver. I have multiple domains protected by cloudflare and for security reasons I do not have MX-records set up to my webserver as it makes my IP easily 'findable'. Currently I'm looking for a way to send my emails from a server that is NOT my webserver, though, in my full control.
I've googled for email hosting, so an external mail server that I can use, but all of these hostings only allow one domain per hosting plan. Since I host more than just one domain, this could become quite valuable.
What I'm trying to achieve is setting up a server that accepts mail and sends mail (IMAP and SMTP), using any software that works. The server should hide my personal IP from being sent through the headers (Google Apps only hides your IP when sending using your browser, not through email software).
The most important part is that I need my server to send mail as if it is not spam. I had several cases where mails from my domain had to be removed from the junk list because it was classed as spam, and since I am planning to send mails with important information, though not classified, I'd like my mail to just show up in people's mailbox without having to state that it might show up in their junk.
If there are any tutorials, I'm sorry, I couldn't find any.
Ruben
