> FreeBSD isn't that bad, but it is different than Linux and the community is smaller.

Which was my point. I know it's better integrated and has better documentation (some coworkers were fans, plus what I read online about it), but I still think going with mainstream is the better choice when writing a general post like "how to run your own mail server".

Not that guides for "how to run a mail server on FreeBSD" shouldn't exist. Just that then it should be called that, and not be general advice to anyone who might be googling the general title. There's so much bad press for running your own mail server, while really it's not that hard with the right tools and explanations.
