Here we will configure it in smarthost mode as part of common [Mutt](/wiki/Mutt)+Postfix+[Fetchmail](/wiki/Fetchmail) stack. + +Installation +------------ + +`yum install postfix procmail make` + +Procmail is not strictly neccessary, but is useful to sort your incoming mail, for example to put each mailing list in its own directory. Make is also not neccessary, but is used to keep Postfix lookup tables. You should also check `alternatives` command, to see if it is the default `mta`. It probably is not. You may need to `yum remove ssmtp` or something. + +Configuration +------------- + +In TemplateVM open `/etc/aliases` and add line: + +``` {.wiki} +root: user +``` + +and run `newaliases`. + +This is the only thing to do in TemplateVM, as MTA configuration is AppVM specific, so we will keep it in `/usr/local` (ie. `/rw/usrlocal`) in each AppVM. + +Now shutdown TemplateVM, start AppVM. Create directory `/usr/local/etc/postfix` and copy `/etc/postfix/master.cf` there. + +### Makefile + +Postfix keeps its lookup tables in bdb hash databases. They need to be compiled from source files.
