My mail setup is Postfix with amavisd-new, spamassasin(built into amavisd-new) and clamav antivirus. It was quite easy to setup, and its stable. For IMAP and POP i use Courier-Imap with SSL, and for webmail i use SquirrelMail. The admin is low (although i only have about 5 LAN users). I would recommend my mail setup anyday. If you like i can mail some resources that i used in setting up our server. > >Another issue is the FreeBSD version. Should I stay with >the 4.x-STABLE >or should I go with the 5.x.

I would stay with the 4.x-STABLE branch (4.10) but get others' input on this.
