# Common e-mail tools
sendmail - postfix - sends mail to local users (and internet when configured correctly)
fetchmail - gets mail from internet accounts (non-Hotmail type)
procmail - sorts and delivers into separate mailboxes
mutt - mail client that sucks less than all the others
Email the Linux Way

I like using qmail for my mailserver and you can just use the instructions at:

www.lifewithqmail.org

or for a more complex setup (the one I use) you can take a look at:

I use sendmail, but it's tough...

Chris

Powerful, though. Use postfix if you are a newbie!
