I tend to go with Martin on this but I moved (A number of years ago) from
Sendmail as I personally found it's config to be something of a mystery
and it's then almost constant patching a real nightmare (I did say it was
a few years ago. This has been dramatically reduced in the 8.13.x series).
I moved to Postfix and have found it's config to be clear, simple and
powerful. Currently it plays fine with MailScanner and it will do so into
the future (Postfix's author will claim otherwise and will keep changing
the queue structure to keep Jules and Glenn on their toes). So my vote is
Postfix but usual caveats apply :-)
