I'm partial to OpenBSD for my vB install. All the major requirements (MySQL, PHP, Apache) are readily available with pkg_add and I end up with a slim & trim functional webserver. The CMS answers from the IP and 4 more virtualhosts are available also (static html sites)

I also have Debian running Apache2 as well as a install of Arch running Apache just to not be bored. They are all in VM's on ESXi so it's easy to revert to a snapshot and try something new from a base .iso install.
Roundcubemail is buried inside my vB and hooks up to another OpenBSD Postfix server for mail on all the virtual sites.
