Question : Redhat Linux email server setup - 2000 points POWERBALL!!!

From http://www.experts-exchange.com/Operating_Systems/Linux/Linux_Setup/Q_20613832.html

After reading http://techupdate.zdnet.com/techupdate/stories/main/0,14179,2913123,00.html, I believe my request is much alot harder and deserves not 500 points but 2000 points.

I would like to have a setup with:
Any version of Redhat 7.0 and above
Apache - virtual domains
Mysql or Postgresql
PHP
Postfix
Courier-Imap
SpamAssassin
Procmail
Webmail or Qmail


Here what I have to work with:
A Gateway 6400 server with 933mhz pc, 256mb of rams, 36GB Scsi, a router with a static IP.

No offense but I am a amateur at this.  I try this many times and was not successful.  I am looking for a no-brainer-follow-the-instructions manual.  I am looking for someone who got theirs to work and have all the instructions to do it from scratch.  My server is ready to go and can built everything from scratch.  Thank you very much.

OK.  Let's start from here and see what happens:

1. vi /etc/procmailrc
2. Add the following lines:

PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin
MAILDIR=$HOME/Maildir
DEFAULT=$MAILDIR/
LOGFILE=$MAILDIR/logfile

3. execute "redhat-switchmail" check whether postfix the default mailer
4. service sendmail stop; service postfix start; chkconfig sendmail off; chkconfig postfix on
5. useradd support
6. su - support
7. echo "%_topdir    /home/support/rpm" > .rpmmacros
8. make the following paths

mkdir -p rpm/RPMS/i386
mkdir -p rpm/SRPMS
mkdir -p rpm/SOURCES
mkdir -p rpm/BUILD
mkdir -p rpm/SPECS

9. wget http://www.courier-mta.org/beta/imap/courier-imap-2.0.0.20030721.tar.bz2
10. rpmbuild -tb courier-imap-2.0.0.20030721.tar.bz2
11. after it built "rpm -Uvh rpm/RPMS/i386/courier-imap-2.0.0.20030721.i386.rpm"
12. cd /usr/lib/courier-imap/etc
13. vi imapd; check whether IMAPSTART=yes
14. vi pop3d; check whether POP3START=yes
15. service courier-imap start
16. chkconfig courier-imap on

Done.
