Thnx to all you guys, you were really helpful! I decided to stick with
postfix.

[OT] MTA for home network

2002-01-17 Thread 2sheds

I've just finished setting up my a server for my home network. 
Fetchmail downloads all messages from pop3 server of my ISP - postfix
sends received data to maildrop - finally messages got to my courier
IMAP server. That's my server mail delivery scheme.
On my workstation I recompiled mutt with imapssl support. Reading mail
is fine, but when I want to send a message mutt shows me error 127 - from
my previous experience it means that sendmail binary is not found (and
that's absolutely correct, it's not installed :) )
I need your advice: what MTA shall I install for that easy task of sending
outgoing mail to postfix running on my local server? Sure thing, I don't
want any sendmail/qmail/postfix for that, but I've seen several
minimalistic servers on freshmeat - perhaps someone could gimme a piece
of advice on that issue?

ssmtp is what people typically recommend.

Nullmailer.  See http://untroubled.org/ .

If you are familiar with postfix anyway, you could just as well 
install a postfix with minimal configuration on your working 
machine.  Typically, this /etc/postfix/main.cf should be sufficient:

myhostname = slave.host.name
myorigin = what.ever.applies
mydestination = 
relayhost = your.relay.host
default_transport=smtp

That's all.  It may quite well be more difficult to properly 
configure some minimalistic mailer.
