Everyone has mentioned dovecot -- maybe I should check it out -- but I have been using courier-imap for 5 or 6 years and like that POP/IMAP package. All clients connect fine, it does SSL (POPs/IMAPs) and never gives me any trouble. The multiple rc.d files are kinda silly. I've been using it on a mail machine to serve 200 domains and about 2,500 email addresses -- never seems to crash, never requires restarts. Oh, and I use sendmail as the MTA (with clamav/milter-regex/sid-milter/milter-greylist). - Rudy
