We also use postfix,
Postfix has been able to support a continuous high load without any problem
for over two year now on many of our servers. It is easy to configure,
secure as
hell and extremly performant. The author not only is recognized as a
security
expert but has also developped many utilites that you can use with postfix
to
make it even more secure (chrootuid as an example).
