hmm. I've setup mail servers based upon sendmail, exim (www.exim.org)
and qmail (www.qmail.org) in the past.
For simple setups like yours I found 'qmail' suitable, and easy to
maintain. 'fetchmail' (see ports-collection) supports the 'ETRN' way
of getting the mail. You may easily setup a cron job doing it.

But security and maintainability concerns lead one to simply avoid
sendmail.
For more complex situations or a really 'volume-oriented' setup I
personally would jump into 'postfix'. (www.postfix.org)
