TwitterI'm changing my mail functionality to use phpmailer so that I can more easily use SMTP with my outgoing mail. I need to set up SMTP on my server to do so (and then in my script include smtp host, username and password). My currently installed mail server is postfix. I have got one email address hosted on the server.
Currently I only do two 'mail-related' things on my server:
1. I host one email address; and
2. I send mail from php scripts.
So I want to set up SMTP without impacting my current functionality.
Do I need to change my mail server to MSMTP or does Postfix include SMTP? If postfix does include SMTP, how can I get the details of this or configure it?
If I do change to MSMTP, it will uninstall postfix and Dovecot (as it depends on Postfix). If I do this, will I lose any functionality, or will it affect my mailbox.
