I would also recommend postfix.

Here is a good guide to setting up postgrey (greylistinging) and other spam
prevention techniques with Postfix:

Here is a good link if you have multiple domains you want to host on the
postfix server:
http://www.postfix.org/VIRTUAL_README.html

As for webmail, I would highly, highly recommend you check out Ilohamail:
http://ilohamail.org/
I used Squirrelmail for years and only a couple of months ago found
ilohamail.  I find the interface more attractive and it is much better with
large maildirs than Squirrelmail.

HTH,

Preston
