Simon,

qmail and postfix are, should i say, the major alternatives to sendmail
i use qmail since more than 6 years on several servers, one of them acting
as a gateway for 2000+ users
qmail is dramatically reliable, stable, secure, simple to use...
there was (and still is, i think) a prize (1000 usd if i remember) to
whoever could find any security breach in its code, which has never been
claimed
its bare minimum configuration stands in one file of one line, but many
things can be configured afterwards.
many useful tools are available beside for various things (webmail, log
stats, webmin module, ...)

Bien sûr que je suis perfectionniste !
Mais ne pourrais-je pas l'être mieux ?
