qmail

I took the plunge and I'm learning qmail. Qmail comes with a very high recommendation from my dad and many other people. Qmail is very fast, very easy to configure, and very secure.

A particulary odd thing about qmail's configuration is that each configuration parameter is in its own file. So, each configuration section has a directory that contains files for the configuration parameters for that section. After you get used to this oddity, it's quite easy to work with.

A great reference for setting up qmail is Life with qmail, and for fellow Gentoo Linux fans, there is a Gentoo-specific install guide. Be sure to visit qmail.org for an excellent list of qmail resources.
