Qmail is another road, but in my opinion qmail will start showing its seams
when being overloaded.
Qmail is very heavy on the concept of queues, it's even worse than
postfix in this regard. And it's a quirky as it's opinionated author.
For those who think I'm opinionated they've seen nothing like this...
Qmail does scale, but it's sh*tload of queues and one line files
drives me nuts.
I prefer exim. It's one single image, no queues, and very Apache-like
in both it's processing and its single config file. It also features
very robust ACLs (that for the most part eliminate the need for
SpamAssassin and ClamAV), embedded perl, and can reject messages
before accepting them (unlike Qmail and Postfix) so the spam never
even enters your system.
