   So far I've got an email server set up that I can use to send and receive   
   text-based email. I'm using the SMTP protocol. But my limitations that I'm   
   trying to overcome are:   
      
   1) I need to start using the IMAP and/or POP3 protocols so that I can:   
   2) easily set up mail client software like Thunderbird   
   3) view and handle emails and attachments more easily   
   4) utilize a webmail client like Roundcube   
      
   Also I'm hoping to eventually manage a user database for email accounts so   
   that I can share this email server with other people.   
      
   I'm new at email administration so still I have a lot to figure out and   
   understand. But doesn't the thought of getting all that done sound pretty cool?
