Use Exim, it's the easiest for a new admin to use (and a joy for old
hats). In /etc/exim/exim.conf, you should have something along the
lines of the below...
# The setting below allows your host to be used as a mail relay by only
# the hosts in the specified networks. See the section of the manual
# entitled "Control of relaying" for more info.
host_accept_relay = 127.0.0.1 : 192.168.0.0/16

Look back in the last few days archives for how to set exim up for
ASMTP. There's several methods.

Yes. Check the archive, search for exim and ASMTP.
