Please recommend distro for a mail server


Hi,

I'm fairly new to linux.

I'm looking for a linux distro to install that I can use to send emails. I've a website that occasionally has to send out emails for feedback and forgotten passwords. It's never going to be highend stuff - always low volume.

Could someone recommend a distro that will have a very easy to configure smtp server? (And some good instructions.)

I'm hoping to get this in a production as soon as possible.

Thank you for your help.

Here's a detailed one using Debian. You won't need to do all the sections as this will also setup a webserver, ftp server, DNS server, etc.
