James,
Is it possible to install everything but go back later and turn off the
webmail feature?
Yes. Courier's primary service modules are (I believe) each capable of running with or without the others. Specifically, I think I am correct in stating that at a minimum the POP, maildrop (i.e. filtering), IMAP, webmail, and SMTP services can all be selectively enabled or disabled after compilation has occurred. -- Possibly other smaller parts of the system can be too, but I can't really speak to that at all.
My comments about removing component entries from the Makefile (which I don't necessarily recommend, but which *might* work) was based on the problem you reported of not being able to compile the (unneeded, in your case) webmail service successfully.
However, obviously if you can manage to compile the webmail system after all, you should simply disable it after everything has compiled if you don't intend to use it... rather than trying to avoid compiling it in the first place via a messy Makefile hack.
HTH.

P.S. I'm fairly confident I'm correct in my above statements. But I'm really just a (noisy!) lurker around here... I haven't even managed to compile courier on my OS X box yet ("dang that pcp directory!!", he mutters again)... So take everything I say with a grain of salt. (Or two. ;)
