This post of yours may bring in a lot of nasty replies about how you will
never get any of this done.

My best advice, if you really mean what you say in the post, is to just pick
a small part of it and get coding. Through that experience you may gain an
appreciation of just how big a job you've set out for yourself. If you
then still want to do it, more power to you, but you may decide to leave
out things you don't need and that have been done well by others, such as
webmail.

I see. You might ask for opinions on the individual items then. Most
answers will be, "pick what's best for you" but hopefully you'll get some
details first that will help you to choose.

Ultimately you will have to pick and get started, and accept the possibility
that you may have to switch one. For example, in a prior life I picked
Foxpro over dBase and Paradox, and I "guessed right", that decision held
steady for over 10 years. When I decided to get out, I picked C# to get
myself started, played "guess again" and tried Java, and then settled on
PHP. You really have to get your hands dirty and try some stuff.

Good luck!
