Postfix is probably the fastest to get something decent up, but if you have the time I still prefer Exim (postfix gets a little ugly when going slightly out of the box, like implementing greylisting). Both are packaged with most distros and both have plenty of documentation.
Webmail has nothing to do with the MTA. I used to do a lot of work with Horde/Imp, so as long as that project is alive it might be a good choice. Squirrelmail is another one that seems popular. For IMAP/POP I am a fan of Cyrus. Dovecot is another good choice.
