If it's used to drive the UI dynamically than that would account for both its flexibility as well as its hardness to setup. Besides SquirrelMail I've been meaning also to take a look at TWIG. Where SquirrelMail does what's needed, TWIG adds things like scheduling, contact management, USENET, To Do lists,etc. There's also http://www.firstpr.com.au/web-mail/ which gives a nice overview of things IMAP.
