Seguridad
By default Debian installs sendmail enabled only for localhost.
If tcp-wrappers are used, a line similar to the following should be added to /etc/hosts.allow
... sendmail: 127.0.0.1
If different filters are used, it's necessary to allow the access to the port localhost:25/tcp from localhost:1025/tcp
Limpieza (opcional)
Remove ssmtp
If the DNS setup isn't defined in /etc/network/interfaces, remove resolvconf
