Lookup Debian refernce (9.6.1):
 "... use exim in Woody and use exim4 in Sarge."
 ...
 "The only reasonable alternative MTA is postfix if you care about security
  sendmail and gmail are available as Debain packages but are not
  recommended:"
How to understand it? - no Courier counted at all, as it does not exist,
but is it also reside in prebuild package. I'm a user, I have not got
enough information about security of that or other packages.

Sorry, my english is terrible, I do not understand.
Courier's faxmail is dependent on courier-mta in Debian package.
It's clean that courier-faxmail is relay on courier-mta. My problem that
courier-mta + courier-imap + courier-faxmail has much more setup/config to
do as apache2 (for exmple), a lots of configuration files, no clean step
by step instruction how I need to be setup/config a smarthost based mta,
which is (I hope) knows courier IMAP.

PS: Generally, in many situations I should trust to this descriptions,
because no reliable description of how to check setup/configuration.
Tipical example mail delivery subsystems. I'm sure that these checks are
much more complex than setup/config itself, and guys from Debian do it,
know it, much better and deeper then me.
