I don't think it is dependent on having a MTA. It runs without it. It even gives reports in a log. On the other hand, I think if you want reports as emails, the easiest thing is to run one, rather than reinvent the wheel. It's easy to add one, the default installation works for local mail. And does so without making your machine vulnerable as a spambot. It takes a few minutes to do, rather than several days to try and bypass. The only value I see in doing what Robert's trying, is to learn more about how email works. -- uname -rsvp Linux 3.10.0-1127.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Mar 31 23:36:51 UTC 2020 x86_64 Boilerplate: All unexpected mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted.
