Right. The answer for me, it is good for me but of course not some much obviouse to setup then exim4 on Debian. I should do some jb, but the result would be apropriate :) About the maintenance I do not mean only updates/upgrades - Debian do it very well, mostly automatic security updates are does. I mean about blacklists, filters and other stuff top be safe - that no one will use my small server as a spam spreading/colleting box.
