Everyone has their own favorite MTA; mine happens to be Postfix. I
use Squirrelmail on one server, it's fine for basic webmail and you
can't beat the easy installation. For users that want a "prettier"
interface, Horde/IMP works quite well, even in the OpenBSD httpd
chroot. I no longer run the ports version, installing manually from
source is no less difficult and allows you to keep up with the more
current releases. I also happen to use Turba (address book),
Kronolith (shared calendar), Nag (shared tasklists), and Whups
(ticket system). I've encountered some small issues with Kronolith,
everything else seems production-ready.
