I think will settle on zimbra... but one more question does zimbra leave messages (sent ,inbox,email accounts, calenders) on the server such that from wherever i log into i will access the sent mails?????

That is a characteristic of an MuA (Mail User Agent) like M$ Outlook. It's a configuration option.

PS: I still think Zimbra is an overkill for your needs, and with your knowledge level, I think it's a very steep learning curve, though nothing wrong with that. Zimbra Community Edition has certain limitations on the groupware aspect. I am not sure you'll easily support Calendars using a MuA, but if you are gonna use the web UI (requires you to have so much bandwidth when you access remotely) then yes, you will be roaming and accessing your e-mails from everywhere.

Better get the commercial edition and run it on Linux, or get the Virtual Appliance as suggested by Phares.

If you are a hardened SysAdmin, then go right ahead and install on FreeBSD:-)
