Both qMail and sendmail are very good mail servers for Linux - I'd use one
of them. Exchange has lots of neat features and a nifty GUI, but is less
stable than the former two (and it runs on a less stable OS).

Subject: OT Suggestions for Email Servers
All,
Our shop has repeated requests for bulk email apps. Some of our lists are
over 100,000 recipients long. Past attempts to provide this service have
yielded nothing but headaches. We are using an email server called MailMax.
No matter what we do, server cannot handle the number of emails that are
sent to it's queue. Now management has tasked me with coming up with a
permanent solution.
My first suggestion was to move the mail server off the web server and place
it on it's own machine.
I am also leaning towards Linux as the OS, because of it's stability, and
the fact that there is less overhead involved.
There are tons of email servers out there, and I just want something that
won't have to have a babysitter. What have you had experience with? Would
you use it again? What features did you like/dislike. Stability? Limits?
If this is too off topic you can email me off list:
Thanks,
Chris Martinez
