If you don't mind building some code, then get SMTPClient: http://www.engelschall.com/sw/smtpclient/distrib/smtpclient-1.0.0.tar.gz
A couple of other options are nullmailer and ssmtp.
Of course, there is the good-old standby, sendmail, which comes practically preconfigured for this kind of use on Red Hat, just edit: /etc/mail/sendmail.mc Remove the "dnl" comment characters from the beginning of this line, and set it to your smart relay host: define(`SMART_HOST',`smtp.myprovider.com') Make sure you have the sendmail-cf package installed, then restart sendmail: service sendmail restart The .cf files will be rebuilt automagically. Oh, one more thing, make sure DAEMON=yes in /etc/sysconfig/sendmail, or this will fail to work (this is a change from earlier RH releases, where it might have been a good idea to set DAEMON=no). This will run the daemon ONLY as a local server (on 127.0.0.1) for the sole purpose of submissions by MUAs.
