I personally use Postfix. It's a fairly light, secure-by-default mail server that does almost anything you'd need it to. I'd recommend "Postfix: The definitive Guide" from O'Reilly, the No Starch version is pretty good too. There's plenty of good info on the web as well. I'm guessing you're new to the fundamentals of e-mail, so I recommend a book to get your feet wet. Sendmail and Qmail are other great server products, again with plenty of great books and web docs. I find Sendmail to be a little bloated for my use and Qmail just plain weird, but they're both great options depending on what you're doing. -Brian
