System-generated emails
MediaWiki by default uses php to send email notifications to users if they are  and in the user's preferences. Common local mail transfer agent software for sending messages on Linux systems are Postfix, Sendmail, or Exim. Once a local mail transfer agent is installed, you must set the  variable in the file   to point to the correct executable file of your mail server software. See the PHP documentation.

Alternatively you can use to connect MediaWiki to an email provider, no local mail transfer agent needed.
