Well, you just said "far better" and I think that does need qualifying.
"Functionality" is also a broad term. Configuration is also part of
functionality and Sendmail is undeniably more configurable than Postfix.
If Postfix can't do something you want but Sendmail does, then Sendmail
is better in that context. Of course, for most people there is no such
context.
