It should be (fairly easily) possible to configure PHP to send via an existing SMTP server, so you don't have to worry about setting up a full MTA. Otherwise Postfix does a pretty good job, IIRC.

I've been revisiting the subject while setting up a new Lucid server and have been a little surprised that there's not much info out there about setting up a simple SMTP server that doesn't receive email but just sends it when PHP tries to use sendmail to send email.

The setup is pretty straight forward, install and configure postfix and forward all mail from root etc through the this. Php mail will then work using this default system. I have a complete setup notes, but they are at work and I can't get them until weds, if you can wait until then I can email them to you. Some of the php smtp settings are applicable to windows only, so check the php manual to save time trying to set things in php.ini that won't work on ubuntu - something I have done in the past.
