[TYPO3-debian] Problems with mails

[Michael Stucki]

Hi Rasmus,

of course you will have to set up a mail transfer agent first!

Open a shell and trigger "mail -s <your_subject> <recipient_address>".
Finish the message with a single dot "." on one line.

Unless this does not work, TYPO3 will not send emails, too.
Please refer to basic Debian documentation and search for MTAs like Exim or
Postfix for more information.

Regards, michael
