DNS etc is someone else's problem. We'll be using exim but would be happy 
to be to take recommendations for the receiving end.

Requirements are that it should be secure, stable and easy to understand 
but I suppose that goes for everyone really. Don't know how much those 
requirements are mutually exclusive (particularly the easy to understand bit)

I can dive into the man pages of whichever package (although they often 
seem to assume a large amount of prior knowledge). Is there a decent guide 
which goes through the whole process of setting up a mail server anywhere?
