The problems that you report are indeed bizarre, and are not anything that
is expected.
Did your copy of imap-2006a come directly from the UW FTP server:
ftp://ftp.cac.washington.edu/mail/imap.tar.Z
Or, did it come from a third party?
If it came from a third party, it may be modified. Have you tried the
unmodified UW imap-2006a?
Is there an /etc/c-client.cf on your system? If so, did you put it there
and/or do you approve of its contents? If not, what happens when you
remove that file?
Some third party distributions install /etc/c-client.cf files that break
UW imapd. The fix is almost always to delete that file. Most sites do
not need that file.
