I agree with james on this one.  Cyrus is by far one of the better ones, 
actually the best one I've tried.  I've trued wu-imapd and you have to use 
it with washington universities pop3d.  WU-Imapd creates a place holder 
message as the very first message and only wu's pop3d knows to ignore it.

As far as FTP servers go, I would 100% recomend proftpd, mostly because of 
the configurability, but some say its got some security problems, 
personally I havn't noticed any security problems.
