<font size="2"><font face="times new roman,serif"><b>Thanks for all the responses. In the end I narrowed my choices down to postfix and ssmtp and chose postfix. It's a bit overkill for my needs but the knowledge of setting it up will perhaps serve me in the future. I hadn't found msmtp but I see that it's similar to ssmtp. Thanks again.<br>

If your use case is relaying all outgoing mail through a pre-<br>
selected SMTP server (e.g., gmail), then msmtp will do the job<br>
without having to install a full MTA<br>
<<a href="http://msmtp.sourceforge.net/" target="_blank">http://msmtp.sourceforge.net/</a>>. There are a number of howtos out<br>
there which give an introduction to setting it up.<br>
<br>
Note that it does NOT handle queueing, so you will have to manage<br>
delivery errors yourself (either hanging on to the message and<br>
trying again later, or just dropping it on the floor).<br>
