Howto forge has a set of cut and paste mail howtos that will get you a
very sophisticated mail server for very little pain.

I would also consider spending around £5 a month and getting decent VPS
from the states to set all this up on.  I have never been happy about
hosting mail on ADSL.

If you go for a VPS go Xen not Virtuozzo to avoid performance issues
when the hosting company over sell resources.

Peace Jim :-)

 You do not belong to you. You belong to the universe. The significance of
 you will remain forever a mystery to you, but you may assume you are 
 fulfilling your significance if you apply yourself to converting all your
 experience to the highest advantage of others.
