SMTP Relay with Web Dashboard

What does this bring compared to apt-get install-ing an established mail server like procmail or exim and configuring it to work as a relay for the local LAN?

I am still setting it up, but I've seen Mailrise and Apprise that essentially achieves this.

The nice thing about Apprise is that it can direct notifications to various places, not just another email server.
