I believe that I saw on the Ubuntu forum site something about POSTFIX
being the default SMTP package.<br>
<br>
That was good information. It describes the type of operation this
server will be used.<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>

Postfix would be my SMTPd of choice here, and it's got a fair set of
options to help you lock down your server.
They've actually got a very help documentation set on their website,
including a page devoted to tackling problems just like this one.
Configuration help is included, with the added bonus of "in English"
versions of what exactly your doing by setting your config values.

Hope this helps.

I am wondering which would be the most efficient to use (setup, config,

world).
I have been exposed to Sendmail in the past and it was not a positive one.
