My website I'm looking to implement drupal. What I would like is my main page, my blog, my wiki, email, and forums to all have their own sections and most importantly each user have one login for all sections. How easy is this to accmplish with drupal with conversion from wordpress and phpBB3 for the forums and squirrel mail for mail server and the wiki.

i would like to touch on one
i would like to touch on one other point on here. With everything I have been seeing on drupal one of my biggest question is freedom of applying user permissions. lets say I have the main site with the users that are stored in their database with given permissions. Now I will have a blog sub domain, a wiki sub domain, forums and I want to ensure that I can set permissions individually with each sub domain and make sure that one loggin works for the entire site including subdomains.

You don't have to have separate instances of drupal to have different subdomains (see the http://drupal.org/project/subdomain module) so one login will be for the entire site. And drupal has very fine grained permissions-- should be no problem doing what you want. If you want to restrict viewing different page you'll need to use one of the plethora of contrib access control modules. You can checkout drupal's core permission page at open source cms (http://demo.opensourcecms.com/drupal/admin/user/permissions, login=admin, password=demo123).
