For best article visual quality, open Tutorial: Email server for a small company – including IMAP for mobiles, SPF and DKIM directly at NetworkGeekStuff.
A few months back my wife started a small business. Of course I was the one to build the “IT stuff” here that included a website, some reservation system on it for customers (php programming here), local network in the office and customer area and other things. Most of that was all pretty common tasks for me with the exception of one, building an email system for a company emails.

Traditional networking marries software and hardware together. You want a Cisco switch? It runs IOS or NX-OS. Running Juniper? You can have any flavor of OS you want…as long as it’s Junos. That has been the accepted order of things for decades. Flexibility is traded for predictability. Traditional networking vendors give you many of the tools you need.

I set up a set of slides on BGP security for some folks I know at Level 3 over the last couple of months, and then presented them to an internal Ericsson audience this week. I just posted them to Slideshare, as well —
I wrote an entire series on this same topic a while back on Packet Pushers, if you want commentary to go with the slides —
Part 1: Basic Operation
Part 2: Protections Offered
Part 3: Replays, Timers, and Performance
Part 4: Signatures and Performance
Part 5: Leaks
