If you are starting from scratch and don't know your way around the linux system, why not use one of the 'appliance' style distributions like ClearOS (fairly new) or SMEserver (older but still works)? These are based on CentOS code but have a simple web interface for configuration and will probably set up the firewalling/NAT better than you would do by yourself.

ClearOS looks awesome. Have you tried it?

I don't have a real use for it right now but I have one running under vmware to test and migrated some big imap mailboxes over from an old smeserver. It seems to be very well done with a very responsive web interface for management.
