Courier-imap.  It uses standard Maildir mailboxes, limiting access to that
directory (as opposed to UW IMAP which allows the IMAP client to read/write
anyplace on the system the user can), and it's easy to use with standard
*ix tools (e.g. deliver, procmail).  Furthermore courier-imap uses multiple
authentication daemons, similar to apache's multiple httpd daemons, so it
doesn't run out of inetd.  There are multiple authentication methods in
addition to the normal system's user authentication including LDAP and
MySQL.
