Alternatives to Sendmail

I'm setting up a new server, and thinking of replacing sendmail. The two
alternatives seem to be qmail and postfix. Unfortunately, I couldn't make
the last meeting about postfix.
So I have two questions: Can anyone list reasons why I should use one
over the other? They both seem more seucre and faster than sendmail.
The other question is, can I install either of these apps without breaking
sendmail? If I stop sendmail and start up one of these apps then think
better of it, can I just stop that app and start sendmail again? Or will
there be file clashes, etc.
Thanks.
