I've looked hard at exim, largely because it's the natural descendent of
smail-3.2 which I've been using for about ten years.  I decided to go with
postfix though because it has excellent ldap support, a very active user
group, and generally seemed to be the best main-stream replaceent for
sendmail.

Postfix also have very good anti-spam capabilities.

FWIW, I've had several comments about an amazing increase in speed on the
technical mailing lists we run on our servers.

The very powerful and the very stupid have one thing in common.
Instead of altering their views to fit the facts, they alter the facts
to fit their views ... which can be very uncomfortable if you happen to
be one of the facts that needs altering.
