Hi Bill,

I am building a website for which i need that whenever somebody fills up
the form, the form details should be sent to my gmail id.
I have not decided on the hosting yet but thinking about Amazon EC2 which
gives a virtual linux box to host the website. So, before actually putting
the whole of the code on the EC2 linux box, i was trying to test it on my
local linux machine.

So first step was to check if i can email to my gmail id/or any email id
from my linux machine. For that, i guess i need to set up my local machine
for full mail service.

Please let me know if any more clarifications required on it. I am trying
to do this from last two days but no success.
