As a relative newbie I would recommend Postfix. I followed the instructions and was amazed at how uncomplicated it was. I downloaded Qpopper to handle things for the pop3 clients. I use savelog to rotate the mail logs [mail.info and mail.log grow really big] and edited /etc/aliases [make sure you run 'newaliases' afterwards] to make sure system mail actually gets to me. "Sendmail for Linux" by Richard Blum [SAMS, April 2000 ISBN 0672318342] as the name suggests assumes you are using Sendmail but was so clear and helpful on every other aspect of setting up an email system that I would unhesitatingly recommend it.
