I did many tests with these light MTA, mostly due using on Raspbian and OpenWrt, and my resume is, that the exim4 (light, i never tried heavy daemon) is simplest way and enough light to run on RaspberyPi B (i have no heavy traffic, of course), then it is simplest solution for any Debian machine which has cca 4 MB disk place and 512 MB RAM. These light MTAs has some problems - one is only MUA, with remote delivering, another can read headers only from file, etc. Then there are small problems with some other applications (e.g. cron, procmail, custom scripts, etc), where can be needed to do additional setup for these MTA. All these problems are solvable, but often particular MTA dependent. regards -- Slavko http://slavino.sk
