It's very messy.  I don't know of one that's in distribution.  I think
there's one buried inside a certain commercial product.  I wrote one a
while back that is currently inaccessible (disk crash, need to get it
recovered) but it's not really useable.  IMAP syntax is very very messy.
Are you trying to write an IMAP server?
