I'm new to email on FreeBSD. Could someone please advise at what MTA i should use. I thought courier might be a good choice since it has integrated POP3 and IMAP servers (bearing in mind i have to serve Outlook clients). I want simple install.I know a lot of people like Postfix, but I have been using a qmail/vpopmail/courier-imap combination for almost three years now. I translated a German howto into English some time ago. I have never used Postfix, so I cannot comment on its ease of setup or use, but I think once you understand the basics of an MTA and the subsequent POP or IMAP services, qmail is one of the most stable options out there. If interested, you can take a peek:
Thank you
Gareth

The original HOWTO is at:

I can say that I have never been hacked and/or had any problems with the SMTP, POP or IMAP services locking up - ever...
If you are not supporting multiple domains, then the vpopmail option may not be necessary - it is, however, an easy way to manage one or multiple domains with qmail as the MTA.
