Hello -

It worked !  There was a Fedora RPM, it installed very fast.  I was able to
receive the first email I sent, except that the sender turned out to be
"Dean Jones"..

There is a simple config file.

I assume it's not using "stuff" (sendmail deamon that's running on my
machine) that I need to supply.

I will also look at ssmtp - but so far everything says this is a Debian
thing and I run Fedora, and I don't know what the issues there might be.

I also found a bunch of links to "nullmailers" that included ssmtp and had
some stuff like nbSMTP (which seemed to be my kind of thing ie. "no brainer
SMTP" )

Thanks Everybody!
