How to set up a mail server on a GNU / Linux system

Postfix is the mail server used in this very guide.

So I don't consider Postfix to be easy to set up.

OpenSMTPD looks like a step in the right direction.

I haven't looked at OpenSMTPD. This guide does include a lot of configuration, but it's worth mentioning that not only are the defaults pretty reasonable, but that Ubuntu (and Debian) can configure the most important options using dpkg-reconfigure.

If you think Postfix is hard to set up, you've probably never had to deal with Sendmail.
