This was what I was going to suggest.  If you are lucky, you might be able
to find an NT imap server that will get along with sharing the folders with
a FreeBSD one, so you can keep everything local.  I haven't looked, because
I don't do windows, except underdress, and never on hardware I own.  I don't
even have a license of MS-DOS.
