Since piler listens on port 25, we can't run a standard MTA to get

What is the recommended method for enabling cron emails on a piler
system? Currenly my syslog is reporting "(CRON) info (No MTA
installed, discarding output)".

ssmtp seems like an obvious choice, but I'm just wondering what others use.


you can still run postfix, just make sure it doesn't occupy 0.0.0.0:tcp/25.

In master.cf either comment out the following line:

smtp      inet  n       -       n       -       -       smtpd

Or rewrite it to something like

127.0.0.1:10025 inet n - n - - smtpd

You can also achieve the same by specifying listen_addr in piler.conf, and set inet_interfaces = loopback-only in main.cf. In that case both postfix
and piler can listen on port 25 (just on the same IP-address).
