I have a basic box installed with Ubuntu-server (8.04), pretty much a default install. I want to send a couple of files from that box as attachments by email.
I'm looking for the minimum necessary to do this. I don't really see the need for a mail server (it just needs to do a DNS lookup for an MX record then SMTP direct to that). I have so far installed mutt but that's unable to send without something extra being installed.
Try installing nullmailer. That queues and forwards mail to a specified external smarthost. JD
