The gateway I have set up can generate mail for system errors and the like.
It's not my hub so ordinarily I'd set it up as a null client.
But because I'm using ipmasqadm to expose my mailhub I don't know how
to set up an MTA on this machine.
At first I thought I'd set up postfix as a relay and a null client if that's
possible. Essentially this relay would recieve mail from the hub on it's
way out and would be responsible for sending it on. As a null client,
the locally generated email would go to the hub as it should.
I guess I could just check gateway mail on the gateway and not worry
about setting up an MTA there. Maybe fetchmail is my friend here.
Or I could try samba exporting the gateway's mailboxes. Don't want
to add NFS as it is bad enough that I'm using wuftpd.
