That is a wide field and you certainly will have to study some
documentation first. Fedora ships Sendmail and Postfix (Core) and Exim
(Extras) as MTAs. All 3 have of course the ability to be set up for
virtual hosting (multiple domain handling). The question which of those
3 to use (or even another different one) may quickly lead to some kind
of religious, flamed discussion. So you better get an impression
yourself by reading on the MTAs homepages or simply choosing the one you
are familiar with. As POP3/IMAP servers Fedora comes with dovecot (Core)
and Cyrus-IMAPd (Extras). Those 2 can be used with multiple domains too.
dovecot is less complex than Cyrus-IMAPd, last one is most powerful.
Further software to be used with mail hosting is an anti-virus tool like
ClamAV (Extras) and a spam classification tool like SpamAssassin (Core).
Do yourself, your customers and other mail users a favour and only start
running a virtual hosting mail server if you have profound knowledge, in
general and about the different mail applications aspects in specific.
