There are more. eg, xmailserver. http://xmailserver.org (Java and Perl).

But using a Java based SMTP server is crazy. Java is not meant for
applications like MTAs. From a developers point of view C code is easier
to extend then Java. Take a look at the qmail source code and you can
judge for yourself. A Network application in C is always way faster and
efficient then Perl, Java, etc. You don't have an added overhead of the
interpreter in C based applications.
