Receiving and sending mails with multiple accounts

My system is running under Linux SuSE 7.1 with firewall, masquerading and ISDN-dial-up connection (nothing of that will be described below). It was a quite lot of work to get all components accordingly running for doing the job they are intended to do.

First of all, lets have a look at the big picture -- the real thing and my requirements are:

In short, I want to receive mails from different E-Mail providers, manage the mail within one application and send out mails via different providers. Especially the last point is under LINUX a big obstacle, because of being a native server system it seems to be no way to go outside with different faces.
Solving this leads me towards the following bunch of applications building my working environment:
  1. Mail-Transport-Agent (MTA) MasqMail
  2. Mail-User-Agent (MUA) mutt
  3. Mail-Delivery-Agent procmail
