LPIC 1 - 066 - 108.3 - Mail Transfer Agents (MTA) Basics in Linux

In this LPIC 102 500 module, we will see how Unix systems (including Linux for sure) uses Mail Transfer Agents to handle email. After covering the concept of MTAs, we will have a look at some of them including sendmail, exim, postfix and qmail and learn why do we need the sendmail emulation layer. Then we will learn about the email aliases on the system and will use the mail command to read our email and learn how to use it to send emails manually or via scripts.
