My tuppence worth:
when faced with installing a leased line in a hurry with email functionality,
I decided that Sendmail was far too big a hill to climb in the time available.
I went for qmail, which has its faults and detractors, but it is secure and
relatively easy to install without getting out the 'junior witchdoctor' kit.
We have a relatively low email volume, so I would imagine that qmails biggest*
'weakness' - syncing the file system every time an email is written to disc -
does not affect us greatly. It might however be an issue in some situations.
