Scott,

Well... I've never used sendmail honestly, there would have been a few
postfix howtos I would have pointed you to, but as far as mailservers
go, sendmail seems to always have been associated with horror stories.
 It could be a bad stereotype, but never saw the need to over
complicate things, when postfix seemed to work just fine.

for postfix, I'd just google postfix gentoo and there are a ton of
guides out there.. both wiki and official.  (or substitute gentoo for
your fav distro, though it seems to me that gentoo and unbuntu have
the better forums these days)
