Either/or is fine. I've heard postfix is fast, secure, and easy to use
and configure. Sendmail has always worked well for me too. Cryptic
configuration, but works well.

I personally advise you to stay the hell away from qmail. Fast and
secure, yes. But if you so much as sneeze you have to recompile,
POP-before-SMTP and SMTP AUTH are only available as add-on patches, and
the mailing list is snotty and unfriendly as hell. Sheesh.

I've just started looking at how spamassassin works, and hope to have it
implemented soon. It's included in RedHat 8.0, too. Heard wonderful
things about it.
