Suggestions for long term email storage
Eventually I will set up Dovecot as a local IMAP server, pointing to that Maildir. When I've done this before, I've set up a self-signed certificate so Apple Mail wouldn't complain.

postfix smtp relay add users
You might want to use dovecot for this if I understandyou correctly

How to set up an outgoing mail server?
If you really want to try it (and keep it up to date for security fixes, check and handle any relay issues or possible spam attackers) then look at Dovecot or Kerio
-
The easiest way to fetch mail and serve it with IMAP on my LAN?
An IMAP server. I have a strong preference for dovecot for this.

Mail-Client with Web Interface
I'd do it with a local IMAP server in conjunction with a webmail client that connects to it. Dovecot is a fantastic and easy to use IMAP server. Webmail clients are a pretty personal thing, but the last time I used Roundcube it seemed pretty good.

Mailserver
For the record, I'm using dovecot (https://www.dovecot.org/) for IMAP and Haraka (https://haraka.github.io/) for SMTP.

Separating the email server
self hosting mail is always a pain and can take up a lot of support time and you really need to know your stuff. I always use Plesk witch configures Dovecot. But if there is anyway you can push them to use an external service you should do that.

Mail server
I run a mail server on DigitalOcean for a few domains using a fairly standard FreeBSD setup running dovecot and postfix. If you're set up your preferred stack on another hosting provider before, you're aware of all the pitfalls:

Preview emails with letter_opener, MailCatcher and MailHog
hey HN, I recently published an article going deep into email previewing (in Ruby on Rails, but I think it's relevant beyond Rails).
MailCatcher (https://github.com/sj26/mailcatcher) and MailHog (https://github.com/mailhog/MailHog) are super handy and easy to run locally. Both spin up an SMTP server which you can direct mail to, and give you a nice web interface to browse mail and preview it.
Happy to answer any question! thanks, harrison

Mailtutan is an SMTP server s written in Rust for test and development environments.
Useful. Seems very similar to MailCatcher, but not depending on Ruby is always a plus.

Are there any lesser-known tools you use a lot in your work?
Mailhog sounds a lot like mailcatcher

Synology Mail Plus / Mail Station for Test/Dev environment.
I can run MailCatcher or MailHog or Postfix or Sendmail or any number of other solutions, but there's not any other linux sysadmins here so something with an easy gui setup would be convenient so others can poke around if needed.
What are some alternatives?
Exim - Exim Mail Transport Agent - source, testsuite and documentation
MailHog - Web and API based SMTP testing
Haraka - A fast, highly extensible, and event driven SMTP server
LetterOpener - Preview mail in the browser instead of sending.
