I don't agree here. We used Linux + NetApp and NFS for years and it
was rock solid with 3 million customers.
I used Exim on Solaris, Linux and FreeBSD and I have not seen any major
differences in performances. It's all down to Exim's bottle neck: its
disk IO.
Hence my comment on using whichever OS that your admins are familiar
with.
