I'm a qmail junkie so take my reply with a grain of salt.

Not true as of this spring, when a huge survey found qmail's share of
mail service domains to be about 100 times larger than postfix's.

DJB (the author of qmail) is rabid about sticking to the RFCs. If
anyone doesn't stick to the RFCs, it's sendmail. You have nothing to
fear in terms of qmail compliance.

Most qmail users, including myself, see this as a feature for qmail:
the sendmail way is the hard way. Users new to an MTA (basically
anyone that has to ask which one they should use) will have a much
easier learning curve with qmail configs than with sendmail configs.
