[rt-users] Outgoing email - using external smtp

[Keith]

Yeah, I've got postfix running on the test server I have right now and
I think I've figured out how to have RT using it. I'm just trying to
see if the other solution is possible. Don't want to have a program
running on a publicly accessible server if I really don't have to.
Just trying to make my own job easier. :)
