Ok so I'm looking to replace our current windows mail server using mdaemon with a FreeBSD solution, having looked around there seems to be differing opinions of which is the best option to go with between sendmail and postfix. The problem with looking for info on this is that a lot of the high listed articles in Google etc are from way back when, 2000 - 2007 during which time quite a bit can change. So what are peoples current day experience with the two options? A few key question come to mind:- 1. Has sendmail's config moved away from the black art it once was? 2. Is postfix that much easier? 3. What would people use for: 3.1. POP / IMAP support? 3.2. Web Mail? 3.2. AV / Spam filtering? Any advice, opinions on a full mail solution on FreeBSD would be appreciated.
