Hey.
I have sendmail starting up when I boot into linux and I thought, why not get
that to do the job of an SMTP server and let me learn something about Sendmail
in the process.
Questions are: where can I learn more about Sendmail? I have been looking for
a how-to or even docs on the website but they are not exactely Sendmail 101
type questions.
am I right in thinking that I can configure sendmail so that it acts like an
SMTP server? KMail has an option to select Sendmail or an SMTP server so I
assume this is that case.
Is the use of Sendmail a really daunting undertaking or can someone at least
get basic functionality up within a short space of time...
Can I get a bit of a head count in terms of what people use as their mail
proggy that then sends stuff to sendmail for sending... Basially since KMail
really sucks ;)
Thanks to all.
Ev.
