ignoring the 2.2 to 3 issue completely I pick up where christian has  
left:

do you want to run all this on one box, and are happy to maintain all  
that?

my opinion would be that if you don't want to spend lots of research  
time, I tend only to use packaged solutions (or package them myself,  
let swup-cron handle the updates).

so having tsl serving postfix+amavis+sa+clamav+courier is fine, squid  
is fine, but having to install dansguardian for five seats is too  
much I think, a good LART in the office will suffice.
webmail I could recommend the packaged (by another fine packager)  
squirrelmail (but my recommendation is to activate the alias only in  
the ssl part of the webserver, not the plain one). from the same  
source there is openvpn, which I can fully recommend. works way  
simpler then ipsec, don't even think about any other tunneling  
solution, recent articles on the matter support my position there.

backup??? ahhhh, backup???? tar and a calendar on you desk? nothing  
from my side here.

samba? when you are interested in samba, you might want to install  
samba+ldap, which would help you having one userbase, not three  
(unix, email addresses, samba).

proftpd? if you really want to run another service on the same box  
(which holds internal data, right?) I rather recommend you read twice  
(on every occasion) the entire config of the box, to make sure there  
isn't any "known" security hole.

hylafax? love to see your notes in the wiki on that one, haven't used  
it for ages, are people still faxing out there? if yes, please add to  
the wiki. I remember having a real hard time setting that one up.

since there is much said which is not distro related, feel free to  
ask around, but don't expect much agreement, since everybody has  
another idea how to do that, I tried to outline what is simple with  
tsl and what is not.

good luck.
