RHEL4 will probably have sendmail setup and configured already. You
can check to see if it is by running (as root) lsof -i tcp:25

you should see something like the following if it is running:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# lsof -i tcp:25
COMMAND   PID USER   FD   TYPE DEVICE SIZE NODE NAME
sendmail 2995 root    3u  IPv4   6365       TCP
localhost.localdomain:smtp (LISTEN)

If this is the case, you just need to configure the mail server in
your dspace.cfg to be localhost, and add the username and password as
required for the sendmail configuration. Note that if you're running
sendmail purely for your DSpace repository, you should configure your
firewall to block external connections to port 25 to avoid being used
as a relay.

There is nothing special about DSpace SMTP requirements, so for
whichever software you use, you should be able to find ample
documentation and sample configuration files. I'm afraid I don't
really know much about postfix, but I do know that it is a
well-documented project, so you should have no problems using it if
you really want to.
