This is interesting question. Google on "server market share mail transport agent" or check http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mail_transfer_agent , you get link to http://www.oreillynet.com/pub/a/sysadmin/2007/01/05/fingerprinting-mail-servers.html "the most popular by far is still the old guard, Sendmail (12.3 percent), with Postfix a relatively close second (8.6 percent). Exim and qmail are roughly tied (5.3 and 5.0 percent, respectively) in third place." This is from 01/05/2007. Quite interesting article to read.
