I have to say I am tempted too but at the risk of starting a holy war, I
like the Postfix security. I am not suggesting Exim isn't secure but I
read somewhere on the Exim site it's own authers thought it was 'pretty
secure' and 'pretty' doesn't fil me with total confidence. Certainly I
struggle to get my head round Sendmail's configs and I got fed up with
patching several years a go :-(

What a choice, keep patching up the old trusty but leaking boat (Who's
builder keeps changing the jointing methods so you can't use the same
repair methods), jump ship to a boat that looks quite nice with a
consistant joint but with a hull that might not be quite as strong or to
the boat that is a classic design but every so often develops a design
fault that needs urgent attention and it's controls don't make steering it
any easier.
