Email server recommendation

I am trying to plan a ISP deployment using FreeBSD. I am more familiar with Linux but during my research, it's been pointed out that FreeBSD is the more stable and reliable choice for an ISP. Especially as an email server.

What is the best way to manage the addition of new users to the email server? local users or is there a database solution. Also is there a software package available to easily administer email accounts or does it all have to be done with custom scripts.

I would welcome any suggestions of anecdotes of experience.

Regards,
Richard
