I absolutely, positively, could not get imap-uw to work with mutt, no
matter what I tried. So I gave up, and went with courier-imapd.

I use courier-imapd with SquirrelMail, and it rocks. It doesn't knock my
socks off when it's using really large directories, though. I save every
porn spam I get (dunno why... I get about 50/day), and it takes my
server about a good 5 minutes to parse the directory each time I open
the folder in mutt. Or squirrelmail.
