Exim is certainly the easier choice if you ask me..it is very easy to setup and comes as the default debian mta...and to add to this I really like the performance of exim..you should look for ..performance security ease of administration and long term consistency...exim was up almost all the time..no probs to mention

I don't know which is better. There is no better. There is the one with which you are more familiar. If you are familiar with Exim, go for it. If you are familiar with Postfix, use it. You need the system up and running flawlessly, and both can supply that. The time it is going to take to bring it up depends on your personal acquaintance with the product. If you have no knowledge of either of the products, just use your Linux defaults.

I am setting up a server that will run a web application that has a component with a mass-mailing routine. I am trying to decide which MTA to deploy on the server, Postfix or exim. Anyone has any advice about which will be a better choice?<br />

Thanks in advance.<br />

Postfix or exim?

Linux is a UNIX-like open source operating system with hundreds of distinct distributions, including: Fedora, openSUSE, Ubuntu, Debian, Slackware, Gentoo, CentOS, and Arch Linux.

Within Internet message handling services (MHS), a message transfer agent or mail transfer agent (MTA) or mail relay is software that transfers electronic mail messages from one computer to another using a client–server application architecture. A MTA implements both the client (sending) and server (receiving) portions of the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP). The terms mail server, mail exchanger, and MX host may also refer to a computer performing the MTA function. The Domain Name System (DNS) associates a mail server to a domain with mail exchanger (MX) resource records containing the domain name of a host providing MTA services.
