I personally have always used Exim, sometimes with a POP3 server if
needs require it.  I'm definitely not a sysadmin (probably shows, too :)

Exim can be a bit of a pain to setup, but it's very flexible and there
is lots of documentation out there - and once you've got it running, you
can just leave it.  The only trouble is that (in my experience), Debian
tend to like 'tinkering' with the defaults so that their packaged
version of exim will differ from the documentation / examples you find.
And Debian tend to ship older versions too.  Probably better to just
download / compile it from source IMHO.
