[ILUG] exim or postfix advice

[ILUG] exim or postfix advice

 Hi All,

 I'm migrating my personal server (two small web pages and email for 
 myself) to a shiny new Ubuntu 10.04 box.

 On the old 8.04 server I had plesk to manage everything for me. I got 
 sick of it & am doing everything myself now.

 Anyhow can anyone advise whether i should choose exim or postfix? I was 
 going with postfix because I read its easier to set up but then noticed 
 that exim seems to be installed by default.

 The email load will be absolutely minimal, but I may run a small 
 mailing list with mailman in the future.

 Also maildir as the mailbox format and roundcube as the frontend (if 
 that matters)

 Is postfix really easier? worth dumping the standard exim?

 Thanks!
