Bigger problem: I have never configured either fetchmail nor sendmail before
fetchmail -- it's fairly simple if you follow the man pages and run everything in debug mode until you're sure the config options work. If it's just simple POP3 (+possible ssl) access, you might want to look at "retchmail" instead, which is faster and has a very simple config file format.
Biggest problem: I know nothing about samba, iptables/ipchains or any of that stuff.
Nor did any of us, but the HOWTOs for them are actually actively maintained, which helps.
Massive problem: I'm likely to have to maintain this machine remotely either via direct isdn dial in or via the net.
via the net is probably easier. Time to get used to securing ssh. ;-)
