I've personally never heard of it before, and looking at the product on their website isn't very helpful. It's clear that it's an MTA, but I can't for the life of me figure out what's so special about it. They keep emphasizing "policies" and "routing" which is pretty basic stuff. I'd find it hard to believe it's more flexible than Exim, but if there is a reason why someone would use it instead of an open source MTA I cannot figure that out. I imagine if you have all the linux libraries it requires that it will work just fine.
