Exim and Postfix both support SMTP/TLS, SMTP/Auth, and the normal hooks
for silly things like POP-before-SMTP.  At that sort of base feature
level there's little if anything to compare among them (except for DJB's
other silliness you mention).

Understatement.  Philip Hazel is also rather pleasant.  Their mailing
lists reflect this: the QMail lists have regular bouts of newbie/FAQ
derision whereas the exim and postfix lists tend to be much more
supportive and constructive.
