Assuming that you have installed courier from the Ubuntu package
repository, you can use the "purge" option to dpkg to remove the
package.
First, you should have a look at the installed packages by issuing
    dpkg --list | grep courier
and then removing those packages with
    dpkg --purge courier-mta [add other packages that you want to remove]
(another, untried and somewhat riskier approach is to remove
everything courier-related in one call:
dpkg --purge `dpkg --list | grep courier | cut -f 3 --delimiter=\ `
Use at your own risk!)
After that you can install it again using
    apt-get install courier-mta courier-imap courier-pop
[courier-mta-ssl courier-pop-ssl courier-imap-ssl]
As for an installation guide I currently mostly remember answering
some questions during the apt-get installation process and then
setting some variables as documented on
http://www.courier-mta.org/documentation.html
