It's definitely a beast. I usually suggest postfix, which gives many of the benefits that qmail gives (separate processes for separate tasks) without the blatant drawbacks (djb's suggestion to use daemontools, his refusal to accept patches).
FWIW, at least qmail worked well enough without daemontools. Getting djbdns to work without it was hellish (and it had a nonstandard zone file syntax).
