For a mailserver, consider www.qmail.org, www.postfix.org, www.exim.org.
If you fetch your mail via pop3, use fetchmail.
To (sort|filter) your mail, use www.procmail.org.
If you want to run a pop3 server on your firewall/gateway comp, you can
use qmail-pop3d (which comes as part of the main qmail tarball).
