Out of the box, the packages available are going to be slim pickings. You'll probably want to add at least one popular package publisher. Example:

PUBLISHER                             TYPE     STATUS   URI
omnios                                origin   online   http://pkg.omniti.com/omnios/release/
tuna% sudo pkg set-publisher -g http://pkg.omniti.com/omniti-ms/ ms.omniti.com
Password: 
tuna% pkg publisher                                                           
PUBLISHER                             TYPE     STATUS   URI
omnios                                origin   online   http://pkg.omniti.com/omnios/release/
ms.omniti.com                         origin   online   http://pkg.omniti.com/omniti-ms/

You should be able to install pkg:/service/network/smtp/sendmail for MTA purposes (I don't see a Postfix package out there yet but I haven't searched all available publishers). For IMAP, I see pkg:/omniti/network/dovecot out there.
