I am wondering, what, in your opinions, is the best choice for building SA..
I am using it for a Site-Wide proxy, to pass on to my MS Exchange server.
No local mail accounts, simply pass-through.

Qmail?
Postfix?
Sendmail?


I'm running all three in various places, and they've all got their pros and cons. Personally though, for a pass-through relay server, I'd probably lean toward Sendmail. With Sendmail's ability to do account lookups through LDAP, you can reject mail to invalid accounts right at the border. Coupled with a milter's ability to reject spam with a 550 error, rather than generating a bounce message, it can lessen the bandwidth used, keep the queue from piling up, and avoid sending bounce messages to innocent bystanders.

I've been using Sendmail a long time, though, so I don't factor in things like the lurning curve.
