QMail is prolly fine for BIG servers...when I tried it on my home
setup, I had a big problem..like if I sent a mail to multiple(n)
addresses, it polled from the smtp server to my machine n times.
Guess I had got some setting wrong, anyway removed it fast. Came back
to postfix.
Exim's nice and easily configured too...try the exmh MUA...it is just
marvellous. I was a Gnus follower, but have converted lately.
