Sure but I think most of those legacy bugs have been long resolved.

Sendmail has a long history with bugs and security problems (this say 
the legend, I never used it).

Postfix is probably the most updated and with an active development MTA 
at this moment.

I love qmail, but I recognize that probably is not the best solution for 
a new e-mail server, especially if the sysadmin didn't use it never.

Regards,
