Try logging in, looking for mailboxes, and so on. :-)
 

This is the only command i could get to work with tcpdump
tcpdump -i lo0
here is the output is there something more you need??? this is an
unsucessful logon useing squirrelmail is this helpful there is some
stuff about imap in there.
   

Nah, not very helpful :-). But we can improve it. If using tcpdump, the
guide recommends the tcpshow program which pretty prints the output when
run like this:
tcpdump -i eth0 -s 3000 -lenx | tcpshow -data -cooked
