You didn't visit http://www.postfix.org/ :)
Without wishing to start a flame war, if you are just starting out
with smtp on Unix, I would recommend skipping Sendmail using Postfix
instead. Having used both (sendmail for years, postfix for months), I
wouldn't want to go back to Sendmail even if you paid me. Postfix is a
joy to use. I don't think anyone will say that about sendmail.
And the configuration files are human-readable.
