Ok. Here goes. It's not that postfix is insecure. It's great.
However; I prefer maildir's. When setting up virtual servers it makes it much
easier to enforce quotas. Allot of this is that I'm relly attached to
maildirs and don't want to give them up. I like the maildir format and the
way the mail is handled much better than the old way of doing.
If you can give me a good mta that does maildirs and is reasonably fast I'll
look at it but for now the choices are limited. at least courier can be set
up to handle the pop and imap but for now I'm kind of attached to qmail for
smtp services.
Others are always an option when and if they become available.
