### Install required packages
Before running iRedMail installer, we need to install few required packages:
```
export PKG_PATH="http://ftp.jaist.ac.jp/pub/OpenBSD/`uname -r`/packages/`machine -a`/"
pkg_add bash bzip2
```
Install Bash shell, it's required by iRedMail.
```
# . /root/.profile # <- This steps is required, used to set PKG_PATH without re-login.
# pkg_add bash bzip2
```
iRedMail is wrote in Bash shell scripting language, so bash shell interpreter
is required. And `bzip2` is used to uncompress downloaded iRedMail package.
