I've used Postfix on small to very large corporate environments and was able to set up mail server with ease. Postfix's config file is simple and easy to understand while keeping security in mind. I use it for my home office and the multiple domains I run and it has run without skipping a beat. Sendmail has alway left a bad taste in my mouth for being so complicated in its configuration and almost leaving you to feel that you need to to major in rocket science. The author of Postfix has very good documentation on his site and there is even a book now available which was published by SAMS (www.samspublishing.com). > > If you have a big net to take care my advice: Use Postfix.
