Install Postfix to configure SMTP server. SMTP uses 25/TCP
Postfix is a free and open-source mail transfer agent (MTA) that routes and delivers electronic mail, intended as an alternative to the widely used Sendmail MTA.
Postfix is installed even if CentOS system was installed with [Minimal Install], but if Postfix is not, Install it first like follows.



[root@mail ~]# yum -y install postfix
