Ok ok. One should never write to questions at 1 am . Of course I need a tool for sending mail also. It would be rather pointless just to receive mail. So what I wanted to ask was this, is there a simple setup for sending mail via smtp. I'd rather take the daemon approach because it is more flexible than just a MUA. But I don't want to get grey hairs configuring sendmail, when there might be a simpler solution.
