No, you haven't installed it yet, because you got an error message. RPM
won't complete an install unless everything is perfect or you --force
the issue. Consider this a good thing.

You got the error because there's a file (/etc/pam.d/imap) that is
owned by the current imap package that your RPM wants to replace. Given
that you want to replace the current IMAP package with courier-IMAP,
your best option (check me on this) is to remove the current IMAP
package with the command:
rpm -e imap
and then reexecute:
rpm -Uvh <courier package name>
Hope this helps,
