Even though Xserve comes with Postfix, we would recommend considering 
our Post.Office mail server and list server.  Post.Office is being 
used world-wide on many different platforms by large ISPs with 10 of 
thousands of mailboxes. The set up and administration is all via a 
browser-based GUI. And individuals can use that same web GUI to 
administer their own mail accounts (set up vacation messages, change 
passwords, add forwarding, etc.).

Post.Office supports virus scanning (with ClamAV) and SPAM filtering 
(both with built-in filters and with SpamAssassin) and runs very well 
on Xserves.
