I currently use my FreeBSD system as my generic unix server and some coding, along with occasional multimedia. I'd installed postfix years ago and kept using it. Right now, I use getmail with cron, dspam, and dovecot to handle my gmail account. I've never set up outgoing mail which makes changing email clients, or devices, annoying. Currently postfix is set to use dovecot's deliver command so that dovecot can sort and handle it. Before I deal with setting postfix to relay the mail, dealing with firewalls and other possible issues, is there a better alternative? I'd prefer that local mail "just works" even if I lose internet, and any email that gets as far as my server will at least eventually mail. The archlinux wiki seems to suggest ssmtp doesn't work properly with attachments. Instead it recommends msmtp, which requires an active internet connection to use. Dragonfly's dma is local only to the computer and not the LAN. Are the only options configuring sendmail or configuring postfix?
