I'm use exim&courier mail. Exim allow native CRAM, PLAIN
authentication, work with MySQL&Postgres, have simple config. Postfix
haven't native authenticators, only via external application.

Courier also have simple config and many interesting features.

P.S. If you have big mail server (~million messages per day), you may
try nginx as SMTP frontend.
