Have you looked at exim? (www.exim.org).
sendmail is rather dated.
I have no experience of postfix.
I have set up two mailservers with exim. The documentation is thorough,
but setting up a public production mailserver is not for the
faint-hearted. Exim is supposed to be significantly easier to configure
than sendmail.
You will also probably need a POP or IMAP server. I found dovecot to be
very good. I also implemented a dspam spam filter. Not for beginners,
but once you get it going properly it absolutely wipes all the noddy PC
spam filters off the map.
Ubuntu has a 'distribution' of exim, dovecot, postfix etc. However, you
will still need to understand how they work which is a far more
time-consuming task than the actual physical installation.
