Excellent summary Simon, worthy of any FAQ. One other thing that would sway my choice at the moment is support for Greylisting and delegation of policy decisions to an external service. For those that have no spam problems, this is unlikely to be an issue, whist for those who do have to process large volumes of junk, it's heaven sent.

I don't think there are many objective software tests that are of much use outside code quality assurance and I fear qmail would win that hands down, but that doesn't necessarily make it "better to use". Besides I'm not sure how you objectively measure things like "author attitude", which might affect your decision (let us say the author of one of these doesn't suffer fools gladly, and as a very bright chap the world must seem very full of fools to him).
