My Postfix server has been up and running for the last 4 1/2 years without a hitch..

postfix is also used as part of the large mail server implementations at Stanford Univ, Cambridge Univ, Columbia univ, and a few others.. (per Linux Journal this month - I'd have to check the article again for verification.. )
