Postfix will need to be configured to allow relaying of mail for the
internal network.
Fetchmail on the Postfix server collects mail for all the family every now
and then. How long you wait between fetches depends upon your own personal
taste - I run fetchmail through a cron job every hour.

I avoid sendmail as much as possible. There's not much clarity in it at
all. That's my opinion as someone who never had much patience for sendmail.
