I hope you find it useful.  That rc has taken me years to tweak out -
it used to deliver mail to Cyrus mailboxes until I moved to Courier 2
or 3 years ago.

I'm reading this thread because courier-imap works but I'm less than  
happy with maillog being flooded with:

Aug 20 07:41:12 Grumpy imapd: Failed to create cache file:  
maildirwatch (dkelly)

Aug 20 07:41:12 Grumpy imapd: of the File Access Monitor daemon (famd).

Also MacOS X Mail.app often has connection problems. Suspect that  
problem has something to do with mutt modifying my Maildir between  
Mail.app connections as once Mail.app has a good connection it stays  
good. OTOH procmail delivers to my Maildir INBOX which isn't much

It's been a while since I've set up an IMAP server, but I would like to

Never seen these problems.  IIRC, there was a thread about error
messages coming from famd several months ago.  As I understand the
message, it's just a famd config issue, but I don't know for sure.

I use procmail to pipe through SpamAssassin (spamd) and do some other
sorting before delivering to maildirs, but I never have connection
problems (unless I forget to recheck configs after upgrading the
courier auth package).  Of course, I haven't talked my wife into
letting me buy that PowerBook yet . . .

Courier-imap has been running flawlessly for me for around 3 years.  I
understand it can handle several hundreds (or thousands) of times more
load than I can give it.  It's not idiot proof, but running a mail
server really shouldn't be, don't you think?
