Samir,

I would not Google Gentoo Postfix, a lot of there guides are borken (I just did
it).

With Ubuntu just use apt-get install sendmail (or postfix) It actually asked you
how you want your basic set and leaves a lot of example setups in the /etc/postfix

Also there are several good books on Postfix that are very helpful.
