I think it'd be worth it to check out postfix. sendmail is insecure, and qmail is just too much of a pain in the ass to get working. postfix can take a bit of time, but it runs well once you've got it working. The only thing I've found is that whenever I upgrade ports, it breaks. It's actually something things it depends on (authlibmysql, authdaemon) that break, because certain config files get overwritten. Never figured that out, and it always causes me a headache when I upgrade.
