I have an Ubuntu machine that I am using to develop PHP based web 
application. I now need to configure it so that PHP can send out mail. 
The default seems to be to install sendmail. However, I have seen 
comments that sendmail is overkill and some references to ssmtp.

What would be the recommended way to configure this? Sendmail, ssmtp or 
something else?

Thanks,
