I'm sorry, it wasn't for me.
I installed postfix from ports and stopped sendmail, postfix still didn't start though
(it had port 25 open, but didn't respond to it).
Eventually I reverted to sendmail.
I'm on FreeBSD 5.0 BTW.
I do have postfix running fine on Linux, I might add.

Ok, maybe I am little slow but I have 12 domains, with sendmail I could
set them up in local-host-name, and I could set up what computer that
had rights to send mail in relay-domains, and I don't see where you can
set up mysql part and where to set up that users need a password to send
mail.

I have used postfix and sendmail on both linux and FreeBSD and I definitely
prefer postfix. For starters, its security track-record is much better. Also it
was very easy to ste up a system that uses mysql with virtual domains, SASL for
relay authentication (also interfacing with mysql) etc... I hav
if ur a conservative unix admin, go with sendmail, but for "easiness" use
postfix.
i have 2 mailservers and is using postfix in one and sendmail on the other.

I've been running Postfix after migrating from Sendmail for the better part
of a year now. I found it much easier to set up i
what do you mean postfix is hard to setup ?
It's fully functional after the installation, you can send e-mail
right away
and you only need a few changes to main.cf to accept e-mail.
The file is very well commented, save the changes, and run
'postfix reload' as root.
