Hi,
I dont think what you propose is over the top at all. I have all these
elements running now. Using (http://www.postfix.org/docs.html), you can
pretty much get everything running from there. In addition to the programs
you already stated I would recommend using amavisd-new
(http://www.ijs.si/software/amavisd). With that you get SpamAssassin and
Primary/Secondary antivirus protection. Also, make sure you use TLS to secure
your webmail traffic. If you have any questions let me know. Really, it is
quite easy to get this stuff and running. I never used webmin, but apache
maintenace should be minimal.
