Yes, I am currently running a mail server on Ubuntu with
postfix and I highly recommend it.  We currently handle some
30,000 messages per day on an old P4 1.8.  The only problem
we have with it is when our mailing list software tries to
send out 3,000 messages at the same time.  When we run it on
the real server, which is a dual Athlon MP 1600 with a gig
of ram, we have no problems at all.
