Submitted by Igor on May 16, 2012 – 12:52 pm6 Comments
Here is a simple script to help you configure Linux postfix to use your Gmail account for sending emails. The script has been tested on OpenSuse 11.4 and 12.1, but should work find on any recent Linux disro. The only requirement is that you have postfix insalled.
