Haraka
Haraka can serve thousands of concurrent connections and deliver thousands of messages per second. Haraka and plugins are written in asynchronous JS and are very fast. Haraka has very good spam protection (see plugins) and works well as a filtering MTA. It also works well as an MSA running on port 587 with auth and dkim_sign plugins enabled. Haraka makes no attempt to be a mail store (like an exchange or postfix/exim/qmail), an LDA, or an IMAP server (like Dovecot or courier). Haraka is typically used with such systems. Haraka has a scalable outbound mail delivery engine built in. Mail marked as relaying (such as via an auth plugin) is automatically queued for outbound delivery. Haraka's plugin architecture provides an easily extensible MTA that complements traditional MTAs that excel at managing mail stores but do not have sufficient filtering.

Dovecot
Dovecot is an excellent choice for both small and large installations.
Dovecot is among the best performing IMAP servers while still supporting the standard mbox and Maildir formats. The mailboxes are transparently indexed, which gives Dovecot its good performance while still providing full compatibility with existing mailbox handling tools.
Dovecot is standards compliant. Dovecot passes all IMAP server standard compliancy tests while most other servers fail many of them.
Dovecot’s indexes are self-optimizing. They contain exactly what the user’s client commonly needs, no more and no less.
Dovecot is self-healing. It tries to fix most of the problems it notices by itself, such as broken index files. The problems are however logged so the administrator can later try to figure out what caused them.
Dovecot tries to be admin-friendly. Common error messages are made as easily understandable as possible.
