Hi,
I have few (small) sites that run postfix under my control and I also
would recommend it.
However if you require some advanced features from postfix (anti-virus,
spamassassin etc.) then be prepared for few surprises on upgrade and
looking through configuration files + documentation + changelog. Once it
cought me with my pants down and left my sites for few days without mail
until I found source of the problem.
Still, postfix is the best IMVHO.
The moral of the story is that that the move between 2.0 to 2.1 or 2.1
to 2.2 or 2.2 to 2.3 are actually major updates and a number of things
change within the internals of Postfix. If you don't actually look at
the change logs you will run into problems. On the other hand each of
these releases introduced some nice functionality. 2.1 was policy
servers which made graylisting easy, 2.2 changed SQL syntax which made
the queries you could do much more powerful, 2.3 was actual sendmail
style milters that didn't need to be requeued.
I've been really happy with Postfix over the past 4 years.
