I need a Real simple mail system

[lokelo]

I am looking for a really simple guide to set up email for my self so that i can send and receive with pop3 and smtp either on my lan or remotely. I will only need to send and recieve mail for local users, so i dont want mysql or other databases involved if possible. Any ideas on which systems are easiest to set up and use?
