Since there are a lot of choices for making this chain:

 1. Mail Transport Agent: Sendmail, Postfix, Exim or qmail

 2. Mail Delivery Agent: procmail or any of the above

 3. IMAP or POP server (remote access to mailboxes): uw-imap, courier,
    dovecot...

 4. Spam filtering: SpamAssassin or SpamBayes or a number of others

 5. Mail User Agents: mutt, Evolution, KMail, slypheed and millions of
    others

and a lot of the choices are independent, people wanting this might want
to specify their needs a little better... ie, how do you want to use
your mail?
