Postfix - Secure, quite light on system resources, growing support I can't believe no-one's mentioned Exim (http://www.exim.org/) yet - doddle to configure (particularly things like virtual domains) and as far as I understand it pretty secure. I spent a while deliberating between this and Postfix for my servers but plumped for Exim after a short evaluation. Given that I couldn't seperate them on the basis of security I went for Exim on usability. I say install both on a test machine and give them a whirl - but maybe someone here can offer a petter perspective on the security comparison...
