Hi,
Just looking for a pointer to a recommended tutorial on setting up
Postfix as a send only service to be able to send alert emails from a
home server like smartmontools drive warnings etc.
If this makes it easier, I do have a fully functional Postfix mail
server on my website server. Is there a way for the home server to send
its alert emails via the business server? Or should the home send-only
Postfix send through Gmail somehow?
You're basically asking postfix to fill the roll of a null mailer.
Postfix can do this but there are other tools that are simpler to
configure and better suited to that roll. I recommend msmtp:
