when i first found out about qmail, i was skeptical. can some other open
source email server package actually outperform sendmail? and what about
compatibility? i tried it out and yep, it worked really well and it's
somehow easier to configure than sendmail. however, there were a lot of
things you need to install first (tcpserver, etc. etc.).  but that was
fine by me.

when i first read about postfix, i wondered if it could "beat" my favorite
qmail. i tried it again, and sure enough it was easier to configure and
there were more configuration options than qmail.

which one you prefer would depend on your preferences...i suggest you try
them both (and exim too) and find out which one you like better
