Afternoon,
I am trying to setup a null or satellite client on debian system.
Then you can install a null client, such as ssmtp or nullmailer.
Much easier to configure than full-blown MTA, with none of the inherent
risks.
No real "risks" in installing a Postfix null-client, just more rope
whether you need it or not.
Of course, I was referring more to the "running an MTA that can also
receive lots of spam when you don't actually want to receive anything" bit.
He did start out by saying he wants only to send mail, not receive it.
If he has complex requirements that can't be satisfied by a (usually
very simple) nullmailer, postfix is a viable choice; I did not mean to
imply that it isn't.
