Mail Server OS Choices

>> Happy New Year!

And the same to you...

We are currently sendmail 8.13.x on Redhat Enterprise Linux 4 (AS) on
our production kit but...

As with most things, THE single most important thing to consider is what
do YOU know how to use.  I may suggest any one of a dozen platforms for
various reasons but if your sysadmin only knows how to use IRIX or
something then use that!

The same goes for MTA as well.  I will always go for sendmail but that
is because I know it and trust it!

thats my 2c anyway...
