Um, that is what I am doing on an RH9 install that serves two people
on Windows machines using Outlook Express.

Main delivery is via a POP3 server. The IMAP server is used as a tool
for moving, mostly, unidentified spam into a spam mbox file that is
used for automated training each evening. I even put together a little
futility that automatically strips down the spam mailbox and appends
the stripped off data to two files, one used for training and the
other for long term storage of our respective corpus bundles. I also
setup respective ham and oldham folders for periodic training with
known ham.

I can put together a "bundle" for you as guidance for setting up
such a trick for yourself, if you wish. (The futility is open source,
"If it works I wrote it. if it doesn't I don't know who wrote it."
So far it works.)
