Sure. Once the system is set up correctly. You'll want to set the
system up correctly anyways because cron, for example, needs 'mail' to
notify the admin (you) when something isn't right. (other components
might need the mail system too.

Pine does do SMTP, in the same limited way too many other MUAs do.
In any case, run the 'eximconfig' utility. Choose the "smarthost and
local delivery" option. For your own domain, choose something ending
with ".invalid". There are NO relay domains (or hosts)! For the smarthost,
specify the same hostname you specified in mozilla.
If you have any problems with this or additional questions, come back.
HTH,
