I like learning and doing things myself, but I recently put up a 
SmoothWall box here at home and I love it.  It "Just Works". I love it.

Linux Format had Mitel's SME Server on the coverdisc in April. This 
seems to have all the bits and pieces that you are looking for, albeit 
perhaps not the specific applications that you mention.

Its a webserver, mailserver, and gateway with web interface and 
integrated browser based backup.  Looks pretty good if you want a tinned 
solution.

It was the April issue, but you can probably get a back issue sent. 
They tend to be pretty fast with orders and mailing.

Good luck
