#. Installation 

Read installation file INSTALL and follow those instructions. 

Copy file fripost.yml.template to ~/.fripost.yml, edit it and add the following

    bind_dn: <admin bind DN>
    bind_pw: <admin bind password>

where <admin bind username> and <admin bind password> your own admin DN
and password.

Configure an locla Mail Transger Agent (MTA) for example exim4:

    $ sudo dpkg-reconfigure exim4-config

Choose use smarthost for outgoing and no local e-mail. Choos your IPS's SMTP server for outgoing e-mail. 

#. Log in to server

    $ ssh -vNfL 389:localhost:389 <remote server>

This opens an ssh-tunnel and returns to standard prompt. Use standard LDAP port 389.

#. Add a new mailbox.

    $ fripost-adduser 

#. Create a random new password

    $ fripost-mkpass

#. Add a new alias to the system

    $ fripost-newalias

The script prompts first for go-to address, which is where the new alias is supposed to point to, and later for alias. It is not necessary to add domain for go-to address, BUT for alias address.

#. Add a new domain to the system

    $ fripost-newdomain

#. Change password of user

    $ fripost-passwd

All these scripts have an integrated manual you can read using e.g.,
`fripost-adduser --man'. A short help is also available with e.g.,
`fripost-adduser --help'.

Have fun!
