Qmail has a very limited set of features, it is simple efficient and 
pretty easy to setup, and has a track record as a secure alternative to 
sendmail.

Postfix I think is the flexible and popular alternative to sendmail. It 
supports most if not all of sendmail features and easily integrates with 
a number of filtering solutions as well as imap and ldap servers.
