I cannot overemphasize the the importance of a maintainable extensible (shiver) backend. I have used LDAP as my backend for years and it has always paid off. Courier and Exim read authentication and other data right out of it. You may extend it to Samba and pam-ldap. Apache can read authentication data right out of it for Webdav calendaring(?). You can extend the schema to do whatever you want. GQ and Phpldap admin are good frontends for management. Or you can use Mysql/Postgres. But LDAP is da man. Oh, and with Exim you can compile with Perl and script to your heart's content. As for apt-get...well, apt-get is numero uno, but I compile all this stuff from source because I want it exactly the way I want it and I got it and it was fun.
