This gets my vote as well.  I've found postfix to be very reliable and
Maildir (tho not a postfix invention, it does support it) is very
useful.

I'm not sure webmin is a good idea however.  Maybe if you are only
using within an internal network, but it has had too spotty a security

configuration tool.   I would stay away or at least lock it down as
much as possible.
