  Did you even try to check out the main website? I mean really .. 
  The very first thing I would do and always do is enter 
  http://whatever_project_i_am_interested_to_learn_about.tls
  Oh yeah don't use underscores. Hey and after trying the concepts
  then post. That is what I do anyhow. Mind you I am no Thomas
  Dickens.

  Last time I checked Courier-Imap is/was the only IMAP server that 
  focused on Maildir/ format. Well PERL is supported by @ least 
  any *NIX based OS as well as any win?whatever-their-called ;-)
  Yes,yes,yes it is even better than the proprietary versions of 
  imapd if that is your inference. Actually FWIW it is the best 
  imap server I have ever implemented. If production use means
  that it comes with a fancy glossy or religious retoric well 
  then 'no' $COURIER_IMAP = "Just the facts\n";
  oo starting to sound like I really like it.
  
  Courier-Imap supports at least all well known mail servers
  AFAIK as long as it is not windows based. Actually imapd 
  has nothing to do with mail transfer MTA so that was not 
  important. 
  
  Finally if you are from windowsland note that open source
  has been ready for production use for at least 5 - 10 years.
  (depending on how you define it. )

  Well good luck.
  You will have fun with Courier-Imap
  The enjoyable kind.
