Well, that page that I quoted from is NOT from the Postfix
author. It's from somebody else. Also, the page you mentioned
is from no later than 1998, it seems. My page was from 2006 (!),
so it really seems as if nothing has been changed in qmail in
8 years! Not really convincing, if you ask me. Finally, the
500$ offer isn't worth anything, as it's not awarded, although
it should've been.
And in closing, I'd like to just add, that the personality of
DJB also doesn't make qmail or his software favorable to me.
Anyway - I stand to what I wrote. I'd suggest any MTA, *BESIDES*
qmail and sendmail. qmail, as it's too buggy, too few features
and too "complicated". sendmail, as the configuration is a nightmare
(compared to easier systems available nowadays).
Anyhow, now the OP can make a semi-informed decision. As previously
stated I would recommend Postfix.
