I happen to still use sendmail. I have long ago paid my dues with sendmail.cf; and given that sendmail.cf is a Turing complete language, there are things possible in it that are not possible for things like postfix. And the restructuring of sendmail has improved it security stance a lot; and there are a whole lot of eyes looking at sendmail installations around the world.
Having said that, if you are new to MTA's, and have not yet mastered the arcanities of sendmail.cf, stick to postfix. It is simpler to operate, and most people never need the ability to write a fast fourier transform in sendmail.cfr ;)
