Hi Plug, I know little about all this:

I would like to set up a Linux box (currently on loan) to get mail from
ISP, deal with spam, then be accessed from other machines to get mail.

I am daunted by the seeming complexity when I read of Sendmail, Qmail,
Postfix, Fetchmail,Exim(&SAUCE),Courier, Blackmail( antispam on top of main
MTAs) and procmail ...  it all gets a bit mind boggling for me.

Do any of them have an easy graphical install and options for tackling spam
(and include IMAP)?

What of KSendmail as a management system for Sendmail (supposedly to make
Sendmail administration easy) and SWAT (Sendmail web administration tool)
.... I haven't seen anyone mention them in the recent references to
sendmail.  Has anyone tried them?  Are there any better alternatives?

Thanks to Steve Vertigan and Joshua Pierre for previous responses.

Thanks very much,
Daniel.
