- <title>Configuring Your Mail Transport Agent</title>
-
-<para>
-
-Today, email is a very important part of many people's life, so it's
-no surprise Debian lets you configure your mail system right as a part
-of the installation process. The standard mail transport agent in
-Debian is <command>exim4</command>, which is relatively small,
-flexible, and easy to learn.
-
-</para><para>
-
-You may ask if this is needed even if your computer is not connected
-to any network. The short answer is: Yes. The longer explanation: Some
-system utilities (like <command>cron</command>,
-<command>quota</command>, <command>aide</command>, &hellip;) may send
-you important notices via email.
-
-</para><para>
-
-So on the first screen you will be presented with several common mail
-scenarios. Choose the one that most closely resembles your needs:

-<varlistentry>
-<term>internet site</term>
-<listitem><para>
-
-Your system is connected to a network and your mail is sent and
-received directly using SMTP. On the following screens you will be
-asked a few basic questions, like your machine's mail name, or a list of
-domains for which you accept or relay mail.
-
-</para></listitem>
-</varlistentry>
-
-<varlistentry>
-<term>mail sent by smarthost</term>
-<listitem><para>
-
-In this scenario is your outgoing mail forwarded to another machine,
-called a <quote>smarthost</quote>, which does the actual job for
-you. Smarthost also usually stores incoming mail addressed to your
-computer, so you don't need to be permanently online. That also means
-you have to download your mail from the smarthost via programs like
-fetchmail. This option is suitable for dial-up users.

-</para></listitem>
-</varlistentry>
-
-<varlistentry>
-<term>local delivery only</term>
-<listitem><para>
-
-Your system is not on a network and mail is sent or received only
-between local users. Even if you don't plan to send any messages, this
-option is highly recommended, because some system utilities may send
-you various alerts from time to time (e.g. beloved <quote>Disk quota
-exceeded</quote>). This option is also convenient for new users,
-because it doesn't ask any further questions.
-
-</para></listitem>
-</varlistentry>
-
-<varlistentry>
-<term>no configuration at this time</term>
-<listitem><para>
-
-Choose this if you are absolutely convinced you know what you are
-doing. This will leave you with an unconfigured mail system &mdash;
-until you configure it, you won't be able to send or receive any mail
-and you may miss some important messages from your system utilities.
-

-<para>
-
-If none of these scenarios suits your needs, or if you need a finer
-setup, you will need to edit configuration files under the
-<filename>/etc/exim4</filename> directory after the installation is
-complete. More information about <command>exim4</command> may be found
-under <filename>/usr/share/doc/exim4</filename>.
