Sendmail is THE primary server used for handling Internet email - and it
comes pre-installed in Mac OS X.

Be aware that sendmail is a pretty complicated program, as are the various
alternatives such as postfix.  Get started by looking at www.sendmail.org,
and then buy yourself a copy of O'Reilly's book on Sendmail. None of this
is for the faint of heart.
