I'm looking for some sort of pack, for small business? We've got one server, but I need some sort of pack including Apache 2, MySQL, PHP, SMTP and POP3/IMAP?
I'd prefer if I could get some sort of control panel?

Is there any standard server package for this purpose? Or should everything be installed individually?

As far as I'm aware there's no "small business server" distribution. However, you can easily install Ubuntu 12.04 LTS Server edition (the "LTS" stands for "Long Term Support" - this is generally what you want when you're running servers. You can then install/configure your LAMP stack individually (the Ubuntu installer even provides a group-install open I believe).

For control panels, take a look at Webmin (free) or Plesk or Cpanel (both commercial, paid software). Apache and MySQL can be installed using your chosen distribution's package manager.

For mail-server software, you can use a combination of Postfix (SMTP) and Dovecot (POP3/IMAP) with SpamAssassin and ClamAV for spam filtering and virus-scanning respectively.

Don't know if there's any package containing everything you're asking for but you should check out LAMP, it contains Apache, MySQL, PHP and/or Perl/Python.
