Do you know what this involves? It's not as simple as installing an app and off you go.

Try that, although it's slightly outdated.

Sendmail is supported on OS X. I just compiled it.

EDIT: Sendmail is also included in OS X anyway, you don't need to download it, I believe

Actually, I think sendmail comes with OS X. Whoops.

Either way, there is a version already included. I don't think that the OP has any idea what he's doing.
