This isn't a problem for FreeBSD.  The system comes configured for SMTP.
Install 'popper' to get POP3.  I believe there is a combination IMAP/POP3
daemon but the name escapes me.

No nice web configurator, but no Web security headaches.  An autoresponder
is a .forward away.  You can also do virutal domains by modifying the Cw
entry in /etc/sysconfig and adding the necessary MX entries.
