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.
