==OVERVIEW & PREPARATION==
This lab will show you how to set up a '''Postfix''' email server ('''MTA''') on your '''VM2''' machine to send an e-mail message to an '''external e-mail server (i.e. myseneca.ca)'''. You will also be setting up on your '''VM2'''machine the '''mailx''' package ('''MUA''') to allow users of that VM to send a text-based e-mail to your Seneca mail account (myseneca.caonly send, but not receive) , and to send to and receive e-mails locally on your own VM (i.e. vm1 only)VM2 machine.
In order to send e-mail messages between your VMs, a more complex setup set-up is required, and will be addressed in the second part of lab4.
The diagram below shows the layout of the what this lab should be able to accomplish:
