Unfortunately I'm not going to be the one to present that desirable
table; I switched to qmail before postfix or (I think) exim existed,
and haven't found any reason to switch away yet, so I only know qmail
of the ones on the list.

Oh, and I think Dan isn't exactly *ignoring* qmail, he's instead
working on his new total replacement for the Internet email
infrastructure (http://cr.yp.to/im2000.html).
