+<h1>Create a mail server with Postfix, Dovecot, SpamAssassin and OpenDKIM</h1>
<p>The entry is going to be long because it's a <em>tedious</em> process. This is also based on <a href="https://github.com/LukeSmithxyz/emailwiz">Luke Smith's script</a>, but adapted to Arch Linux (his script works on debian-based distributions). This entry is mostly so I can record all the notes required while I'm in the process of installing/configuring the mail server on a new VPS of mine; also I'm going to be writing a script that does everything in one go (for Arch Linux), that will be hosted <a href="https://git.luevano.xyz/server_scripts.git">here</a>.</p>
