Using exim, cyrus-imapd (+evolution) here, bit of a learning curve, but
seems Ok, its been running for 9 months, FC5, just haven't got round to
updating the server!

You ask a dozen people, you get a dozen answers, I am also running exim 4,
however I compiled it myself from sources.
I have been running exim since the FC4 (FC3?) and have been quite happy
with it. I am also using imap and pop3 as well as TLS with a self signed
certificate.
I also installed ClamAV and spamassassin on the system to which exim uses
and all seems to work fine.
