We are using courier-imap in the configuration outlined on the marlow.dk website.
One problem we keep having involves M$ Outlook clients. It seems that something breaks with the communication between the server and Outlook clients (or posssible corrupts the pst files created for each maildir). Has anyone else been faced with this problem? Since we are unable to convince our clients to move to Debian desktops with KMail or some other OSS alternative, some workaround for this issue would be greatly appreciated! Googling has not proven very helpful (only confirmed this as a problem).

Works like a charm. I know courier could handle everything with a single hand and half the overhead, maybe someday I'll migrate every mbox into maildir and set that up, but in the mean time, it does a pretty job.
