How to install SendMail on Dapper (6.06 Server Edition)?

[bobsta63]

Hi all,

I am about to build a new Ubuntu running Dapper (6.06 Server Version) webserver running Apache, PHP, Perl, MySLQ etc.

I am required to install Bugzilla on it and it requires an MTA, I really just want a simple and easy to install one.
The options are: SendMail, qmail or Postfix.

I would like to know, Is there an easier to use and install MTA from the list above? I only need it to send out emails from the Bugzilla Bug Tracking Server.

Can you install them using 'apt-get install'?

Would you say SendMail is the easiest to install, configure (SendMail is the prefered required MTA for Bugzilla).

If you have the command or a HOWTO install SendMail, please post it :)

Thank you very much in advance,

Bobby

I think the command for installing sendmail is something to the effect of apt-get install sendmail or apt-get install sendmail-common Can't remember off the top of my head.

But this page (http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect_setup_ubuntu_6.06_p5) has a great Howto on installing Postfix with SMTP-Auth and TLS, if you'd prefer follow a guide.

Other than that I don't know much about Sendmail.

Daniel.
