I need to set up a outbound only mail server for use at work. I have a
fbsd4.2 box set up with apache/php/mysql, it has internet access, with
access on port 8080 only. I also have a *ugh*IIS box set up to receive
requests on port 80. The IIS box runs the e-commerce site, so it needs
to be able to send auto-response emails to the person making purchases,
and certain people inside the company. Both boxes are accessing the
internet through the same router/firewall/nat box (cisco), and one
ipaddress, whence the two port calls.
I know nothing about setting up an email server, would like to do it on
the fbsd box.
- Do I need to register a mail domain with the DNS?
- Which mta would be the easiest/quickest to get up and running? I know
send mail is available by default, but have heard it is probably the
most
complicated.
- Once again, this would be for outbound mail only, I would like to
block
it from recieving incoming mail if possible.
