The important part of using a patched smap is to provide anti-relay and anti-spam capabilities.
The drawback to smap's anti-relay and anti-spam features is that they are limited. That and the fact that the code has such a small user-base, few contributors, no discussion list, and is not being actively maintained. Patches in particular are subject to little or no code review. Postfix's smtpd is essentially smap on steroids. All the security advantages plus several additional features (whitelists, header checks, message size limits, various rate limits, recipient checks, ...). See the mailing list and smtpd man page for details. http://groups.google.com/groups?oi=djq&as_ugroup=mailing.postfix.users http://www.postfix.org/smtpd.8.html
The spam-rejection capabilities are pretty broad - there's things I can do to block spam with smap that qmail and postfix can't do.
Smap does something that Postifx doesn't?
