Exim has by far a large user base as well as support for NIS/NIS+, LDAP, MySQL, Postgres, Oracle. Has compatability with Sendmail commandline switches so applications legacy or not work without breaking, mailq works as is !

See http://www.exim.org !

I would use the Maildir Format ofcourse !

Just :

mail IN A 111.222.333.444 ; IP_Address of Mail

Server


Just??? Your only adding an address record for your mail server.

You will


also need to add the MX record for your domain as Mark Foster has

shown.


/etc/mail/local-host-names:
#domain_name_of _your_mail_server

Why the # sign. Using your example, your basically creating an

empty


local-host-names file.

*** This would be typically a question that has been answered by the Sendmail HOWTO at Linux doc. Please read some of it - sendmail

server


setup's are not for the faint of heart, especially not with all the

spam


and viruse flying over the net - because you need to understand the

basics


and then dive into it. I don't think the 3 mails posted here are

enough to


setup a serious mail server which will NOT be hacked or used as an

open


relay within minutes of it going on line. Take the security issue

seriously


before putting sendmail on-line.
