Tips with Webserver planning

I am looking for a good server with Linux solution for the following:

Web- and mail server hosting 15 000+ users.

What kind of server architecture is preferable?

When adding a new user, he/she will automatically get mail access, and a folder for personal webpages. Mail must support both pop3 and webmail.

It should also be possible for users to create their own mail aliases.

What OS and other software is good for this kind of solution??

I need a good backup solution and RAID disks. What RAID level would you recommend for this case?

What approximate price level will such a solution reach?

Any tips will be appreciated!

Thanks!
