Configure SMTP on sendmail to send email from unix to outlook

Asked by dinos1979 in SendMail Email Server, Unix Systems Programming, Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP)

Tags: ,

hi,

i have sendmail installed on linux machine however, im not sure how and where to configure smtp in order to be able to send email to my work mail. Do i need to have the mail host in etc/hosts or is this something that can be configured in /etc/mail/sendmail.cf?
If this is too complicated  (for a unix beginner) please let me know if programs such as postfix would be more straight forward.

Much appreciated!Start Free Trial
