Postfix + Cyrus + SASL for simple users. You can add spamassassin +
pyzor/rzor & config your SASL to use LDAP or other auth method. For me
postfix + cyrus is just a better combi.

I like Postfix and Dovecot :-)
I think Postfix is the best open source MTA available on Linux hands
down. I have used Sendmail, Qmail, and Exim and none of them have
given me the flexability and security of Postfix.
I'll just throw in a counter view here. I currently use Exim -
starting from the base as configured by Debian and then tweaked to
match my requirements. In particular, I am able to use the
flexibility that the Exim system provides (for example) understand the
difference between mail for me personally and mail for my business
account and put them into different Unix accounts (I use Courier IMAP
to provide support to read e-mail) and all this despite using the same
name.
Another tweak I made is to automatically copy and save all outgoing
mail that originated locally. Again a tweak I couldn't find out how to
simply do in Postfix.
Previously when I ran mailman mailing lists on the same machine, I
was able to have Exim handle them automatically (ie no change to the
Exim configuration when I added or removed a mailing list). Again, I
couldn't find a way with Postfix to set that up.
Now I accept that I may not be an expert at Postfix, and as such may
have missed the way to achieve the flexibility, but just reading and
comparing facilities in the Exim and Postfix documentation has always
led me to believe that Exim had the ability to tweak things at much
more detail than Postfix.
As I said above, I have stuck with Courier IMAP to provide both IMAP
(for locally connected computers) and IMAPS for external devices (my
iPhone). This has also performed flawlessly for me with the standard
configuration provided by Debian.
