Personally, if you have a Postfix guide and it's setup now, I'd go with 
that.  I have my home system setup with Postfix, MySQL, Squirrelmail, 
SpamAssassin and CourierIMAP (POP & IMAP) doing virtual hosting.  At 
work, I use qmail with a virtual hosting setup.

qmail is quite a bit more complex than Postfix, though they are both 
very powerful. As mentioned below, avoid sendmail like the plague.
