I do this on an Ubuntu machine that doesn't have a proper MTA installed and never will:
apt-get install ssmtp heirloom-mailx -y
Thanks.
Based on this and other tips what I've just done is: sudo apt-get install dma heirloom-mailx -y
dma doesn't need a smarthost (it'll lookup MX records and send directly, but can be given a smarthost if I want to) so I'm trying that for now and it seems to work.
Thanks all for the advice, and I'm still open to new suggestions!
Cool. Let me know how you get on with DMA, please. I have quite a few servers with no MTA on them, running SSMTP and mailx, but if DMA is a better solution, I'll look into it.
Cheers, Laurie.
