Virtual domains are very easy in sendmail now that 8.8 is in common use (and compiles quite nicely on FreeBSD), and the procmail man page shows how to set up a few autoresponders. Post.Office generally has good reviews for NT--haven't heard many comments from the BSDi/FreeBSD front, but it's quite expensive so you might want to think about sendmail before giving up and going with Post.Office.
