Sendmail is quite easy to set up when someone gives you a sendmail.cf
that is already functional.  :-)

(I've yet to meet anyone (myself included) who didn't find sendmail to
be as difficult as they believed... Maybe not as difficult as was
_feared_, but I doubt it has ever actually "surprised" anyone...)
