My experience is that clients only need control over their email, once their 
website has been setup nothing (in the setup) is likely to change.  You 
clients may be different, dunno.  What do you need?

For the hosting that I do I have 2 scripts that I wrote; addwebdomain and 
addmaildomain.  They ask a few simple questions and setup an apache config or 
a postfix email config as appropriate.

My email configuration is (almost) entirely held within mysql so it is very 
easy to manipulate from alternative interfaces (other than root shell login).  
I wrote a user management interface for email in php and clients have 
complete control over email accounts, aliases and forwards within their 
domain.

My setup is based on that described at 
http://kirb.insanegenius.net/postfix.html ... if you don't like mysql you 
could do something similar with mysql or ldap, you could also use pam modules 
instead of the application specific authentication modules.
