You can use sendmail, or postfix, or qmail - in part.  A couple of folks 
have covered this end of things.  But that is just the MTA portion; you 
need a solution that includes:

   MTA and local mail delivery agent (some programs do both)
   An IMAP and/or POP server
   An optional WebMail interface

All of these components will need to support the same virtual user
schema.    Having sendmail with virtusertable support may get mail 
delivered to a virtual mailbox, but how will the user then access that 
virtual mailbox?    That is why the best solution for you might be one of 
the packages that incorporate at least the first two, i.e, Cyrus-SASL or 
Courier.
