Which mail server is the best for me?

[Pat Maddox]

I think it'd be worth it to check out postfix.  sendmail is insecure,
and qmail is just too much of a pain in the ass to get working.
postfix can take a bit of time, but it runs well once you've got it
working.

The only thing I've found is that whenever I upgrade ports, it breaks.
It's actually something things it depends on (authlibmysql,
authdaemon) that break, because certain config files get overwritten.
Never figured that out, and it always causes me a headache when I
upgrade.
