I'll have to be honest for a second -- I don't know of any real reason
to choose exim over postfix. I think both are way above the
competition, the differences between the two just seem personal to me :
postfix is more secure, less configurable; exim is more configurable,
less secure. (i think they're both way more secure and configurable
than the rest though)
Not to sound naive, though i do -- but am I missing something on
comparison between the two?
