Hi Rob,

I'm biased as part of the Exim development team.

Exim 
- is actively maintained
- has a huge user base
- provides more flexibility than other MTA I'm aware of (but, this is
  *my* PoV)

A huge number of major companies and individual users run Exim systems
faced to the internet. Apart from the known and publicly communicated
vulnerabilities we do not know of any security issues in the wild.

(I'm not talking about issues introduced by unfortunate configuration -
the flexible configuration gives you the power to kill yourself. But
even here we're working (recently we introduced the concept of "tainted"
data)).

You're invited to use Exim. And you are introduced to contribute.

    Best regards from Dresden/Germany
    Viele Grüße aus Dresden
