Allright, I checked imap-uw out.  I can't let Jordan sit there and tell me
how lazy I am, even if it's true. :)

First, I noted that yes, imap-4.1-BETA does indeed have a bsf target to
make for, and was wondering just why we even needed patches in that case.  
I got it to compile and it seems to work by simply removing all the patch
files and commenting out the first line under the do-install target (the
one that installs the c-client shared lib, I assume).  I tried mboxtest
and the imap server, both seem to work OK.  pop2 and pop3 most likely work
as well.

I suppose we'd really want the c-client shared library working, ideally; 
esp. considering possible high load conditions; but on my little ol' box
the statics work just fine.  I did note that the Makefile that was patched
by patch-ab is nothing short of totally rearranged now, which is probably
what was breaking the current port.  I won't comment about software
maintainers changing file structures so radically and not even changing
the tarball name except to say "Yeesh".
