[wplug-plan] Email server presentation

[Justin Smith]

Is there a speaker already lined up for June? If not, I'd like to give a 
presentation on how to set up your own name-branded email server using 
iRedMail[1], a 100% open source email server solution. 

I envision it going like so:

1. Getting a domain name
2. Signing up for a VPS: Choosing the right location and distribution
3. Installing iRedMail on your VPS 
4. Hands-on demonstration

With iRedMail, you don't /have/ to know how to set up, configure, and 
secure all the components of an email service; it takes care of all the 
basics for you. It's a great way to eliminate dependency on proprietary 
email services like Gmail that share the details of your personal 
correspondence with marketers and the government.

iRedMail does /not/, however, take you through the first two steps listed 
above, nor is there a hands-on demonstration of how everything works. 
That's why I think a presentation like mine would be just what's needed to 
fill in the gaps.
