The Washington IMAP server works well enough, and its included on most
systems already. Best of all, there isn't any configuration needed usually
as it relies on system accounts. (It may be able to store account
information separately, but that would be an additional feature. Not sure.)
You should just be able to uncomment the imap line in inetd.conf.

As far as LDAP, it really does help. You can use LDAP for a company-wide
address book accessible via Outlook or whatever, and you can use it for
other purposes as well. Were you looking at OpenLDAP?

Regards, Dustin
