Easiest way to PHP mail()-capable mail server

[kepardue]

I've been able to get most things up and running with 8.04LTS pretty well so far, but the only thing that I'm missing in my server configuration is PHP's mail function. I don't necessarily need a full blown mail server for each of the several domains that I have on the server, but I do need something for PHP's mail function to work.

What is the most drop-dead easy way of making PHP's mail() function work on a relatively vanilla 8.04LTS server box?

Thanks!

sudo apt-get install nullmailer

You also have other options, such as postfix, sendmail, or exim4.

I'll second the recommendation for nullmailer. Stay away from sendmail.
You also need to make sure your SMTP server allows relaying from the web server.

Most do, unfortunately
