I too can recommend cyrus-imap which I have used for more than two years 
without problems. From what I have heard, the alternative seems to be 
courier.

The wu-imap does not use maildir but rather mailbox, this means that 
people have access to their standard unix mail box as always and add 
imap/pop access.

Regarding cyrus documentation: I think they have stopped maintaining the 
documentation and moved to use the wiki - unfortunately, you don't 
stumble into the wiki first :(

Cheers, Erik
