I like courier, it's good, and has good support online.
Dovecot is also very good, and quite possibly, one of the easiest to
install.
The only issue with dovecot, is that if your server time is out of
sync, and you re-sync it, you have to restart dovecot, as it relies
on the timestamp for storing it's messages, and if it gets an overlap/
collision, it doesn't like it.
UW-Imap is slowly being phased out of most systems I've worked on
recently. I have no idea why, but courier appears to be the replacement.
Yours,

So far, I've always used UW ipopd. However, there seem to be several
POP3 servers available for etch, including Courier, Cyrus, Dovecot,
GNU
mailutils, qpopper, Solid, Teapop and XMail.
Does anyone have any views about what is good, what to avoid and why?
