All you really need to do is set smarthost on all of the LAN machines - all machines smarthost relay e-mail to chalupa and chalupa uses smarthost - to your Internet supplier's smtp server. Basically you want all your LAN based mail clients to use chalupa smtp server and MTA's (ie sendmail) to smarthost deliver to the same chalupa smtp server. Anything more is just wasted energy. Submission port/587 requires SASL configuration / authentication which is a more involved setup. Not a bad idea but more complex to be sure. Should only be useful setting it up on chalupa. Have I suggested postfix less than 3 times?
