Small mail server

Hello List.

I'm currently building a mail system on my home PC. This should be a combination of fetchmail and mail server in order to push downloaded POP mail into linux local mailbox. I've tried postfix as a mail server. But it looks like a big app, at least for my computer with 24M RAM. However, I really do not need so many features postfix has. Could anybody advice me a mail server with only basic features (receiving mail for local users, relaying mail to ISP's mail server) that requires quite a bit RAM and a little disk space? I have got dial-up connection to several ISPs, so it'll be great to have a feature of determining mail relay by assigned IP or something else.

Thank you!
