Configuring sendmail on SuSE Linux 7.1

[Sundar Narayanasamy]

Hello,

I am kind of new to linux. Though I have been using Linux on my laptop for
some time for developing Java Applications, I never had a chance to
configure a mailserver on Linux box.

I want to set up a mail server at home. My understanding is to configure
sendmail first and second install POP3 server like qpopper.

When I try to set up sendmail on SuSE Linux 7.1, the SuSE handbook says to
update rc.config for the following variables
SENDMAIL_TYPE, SENDMAIL_HOST, SENDMAIL_SMARTHOST........, which I don't
see'em in rc.config.

Does anybody know of any on-line step-by-step instruction on configuring
sendmail on SuSE7.1 with YaST1 or any other good source you think that I can
benefit from.I did download sendmail. But, instruction that came with it
were dispersed and daunting.

Note: Is there any other product easier than this, commercially or
non-commercially?

Cheers..!
Sundar
