What would you use as a MTA on a Debian system made for an end-user?
I've used Exim, basically because it's (was?) the Debian default.
I do not want a default software just because it is the default.
Otherwise I would have be perfectly happy with windows, and then on
Debian with gnome and then... well. I'm not.
Exim is probably a very good and complete - and so complex - tool, I do
not doubt it, but I really feel like it is over-engineering to use it on
a computer which does does not have any mail server task (being for a
gigantic enterprise, a small one or a family does not change the idea of
mail server in my mind. I have a simplistic vision of admin tasks, I
know).
And I try to avoid OE on my computers and softwares. For planet's
ecology and my economy's sake, OE is bad :p
Plus, I want to continue my linux road with more and more understanding
of my system. Too complex tools is a problem for that when it's not your
main task to maintain them.
_ is not a daemon running constantly: why should I have a daemon
running to send mail when I am not connected to Internet or not
taking
care of my mails? Something which is started by the client ( MUA it
seem? ) is good enough for me and does not consume time when
starting or
shutting down my computers.
_ is lightweight, because I always aim to have a system which let
all
Assuming you're using a smarthost (relay host), you
can use a relay server such as ssmpt, msmtp or nullmailer which I
believe all meet these two conditions.
By relay host, you mean the server from which I am sending this mail (
through a web interface )? If so, yes, I only want to discuss with it,
except if there is some advantage ( for me or that server ) to directly
send mails to their final server.
