Do you know dovecot? It's to imap servers what vsftpd is to ftp servers ;-)
I've put it into production not long ago with postfix, amavisd-new and
clamav, all architectured around LDAP and Maildir boxes, it rocks!
http://dovecot.procontrol.fi/
I'd prefer seeing this one go into RHL rather than Cyrus or Courier.
Aye, dovecot is a joy to work with. It's missing a few essential
features, but if they are covered up, I can't imagine much reason to use
another IMAP server for most uses. (Not sure how well dovecot scales to
the hundred-thousand user limit.)
Going with whichever IMAP server, tho, it might be nice to include a
config tool for the mail server. Just the basic stuff, like local
domains, standard unqualified domain, etc. Covering outgoing SMTP, and
POP3/IMAP. Might help bump Debian offer my servers. ;-)
