Hiya Steve,

Postfix is probably the best fit for what you are doing, as I think it
is generally considered a good replacement for FC's default, which I
believe is Sendmail. There are stacks of HOWTOs out there and even I was
able to set it up!

;o)

Failing that, Exim didn't put up too much of a fight last on my previous
mail server.
