Postfix is set up for local local delivery only, and does not operate chrooted re the Debian SELinux wiki on selinux setup. msmtp allows multiple accounts for sending, selectable within mutt, and is quite easy to set up. Postfix, on the other hand, is a bit more arcane in it's setup procedures - and does not readily allow multiple smtp accounts for sending mail. ssl is fully supported with msmtp as well. So: fetchmail-procmail for popping external mail, msmtp for sending external mail via smtp with ssl, and postfix-procmail for system messages (logs and the like) delivered to my inbox.
