I use courier-imap to handle my mail service at home.  Was running 1.5.3
and just upgraded to 2.2.1 on Fedora Core 1.  It uses Maildir format to
store messages in $HOME/Maildir with subfolders in
$HOME/Maildir/.subfolder.  It supports IMAPS and STARTTLS.  I've been
very pleased with it.

I have FC1 RPMS for courier-imap 2.2.1 if anyone is interested.
