Postfix is generally excellent, and has a modular design.
Exim is really good and is simple to set up and administer. It has a
monolithic-binary design.
Courier MTA is new-ish, but is getting a good reputation, and includes a
webmail component, SqWebMail.
All three are so blindingly fast / high-throughput in real-world
operation that the exact rankings are basically irrelevant.
