Tika has some mailbox file parsing that includes metadata parsing.
For POP/IMAP email servers I don't know any tools.

Depends on what your trying to index, I suppose. Maildir or mbox? For some time
now, off and on, I have been working to index an ezmlm mailing list archive. In
the end, I went with Swish-E and have made quite a bit of progress. I am short
of my complete goal though. The issue is that the search results do not return
results that contain the subject, and there is currently no excerpt or phrase
highlighting. My problem is the flat text email files I am working with have no
xml or anything to help the indexer create fields from. I've not yet figured
out how to convert the emails to xml.
Neither Maildir or mbox -- IMAP/POP doesn't care. Basically, I want to
build the index based on the contents of (my) gmail box. I can
retrieve the messages using IMAP, just need to figure out the
structure of the index.
Converting email to XML? Email me off-list and I'll provide you with
some help (as email => XML has little to do with lucene).
