But now these days Postfix is being used more often. I have no experience with qmail, but my experience with postfix is really good. I can't judge which one is better or not but I'd go with Postfix all the way. And Ubuntu uses Postfix as well, while Debian uses Exim. (Correct me if I'm wrong). And on my work (large enterprise) we use Postfix as well for mail in, mail out and relaying. Works really great. I hope my information is of some use for you. Cheers, Jorn.
