Of course, what really matters is that you choose a solution that meets your specific needs. From what I've read over the past several years, it really boils down to personal preference rather than any great difference in functionality.
Yeah, in my case of 20+ years in UNIX admin and development, I've become comfortable with administering sendmail-based systems, and postfix is the devil not known :)
I haven't stayed quite up to the minute on MTA's, but my impression was that sendmail really, really needed the milter interface but once it was added and tools like MimeDefang were developed to handle external processing within steps of the SMTP conversion (and under different user ID's if you want) it became as good as anything. Maybe RedHat just never found MimeDefang...
