However, sendmail is not simple and for new users, postfix is probably a better choice. The general recommendation I make is that if you are or have access to a sendmail expert, run sendmail. If not, run postfix. Both work fine but postfix is far more user friendly. I have run both at home in the past but currently run sendmail since that's what I manage at work. .../Ed -- Ed Wilts, RHCE Mounds View, MN, USA mailto:ewilts@xxxxxxxxxx Member #1, Red Hat Community Ambassador Program -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
