DragonFly Mail Transport Agent (DMA)
This role installs and configures the DragonFly Mail Transport Agent
(DMA) to relay mail to a smarthost. If desired, an alias can be set under
/etc/aliases to forward all mail to the specified email address.
I deploy this role to machines to receive their system mail. (See this blog post for a bit more background information.)
Requirements
None
