I'm one of the few people who use Courier-MTA for everything
and like it. It's a pretty impressive package, a pain to configure
unless you actually read and follow the documentation. 
http://www.courier-mta.org  

And many MANY other systems/config use Maildrop and other pieces
of Courier... 

But if you are a newbie, I suggest you learn and use whatever is installed
by default in your distro-of-choice, it'll probably work the easiest, 
and you'll learn enough quickly to know more what you want and why.
You may even find the one in the distro-of-choice is what you wanted 
anyway.
