After several recommendations, I've set up a test installation of Cyrus to
try it out.  It doesn't seem too hard to get set up on Debian, because
it's all pre-packaged and then comes with step-by-step instructions.  I've
hit one oddity though - it seems to insist on all folders being
sub-folders of the original "Inbox".  It doesn't seem to be possible to
have folders alongside "Inbox" at the same level.  Is this normal?

I suspect I may go with one of the simpler options.  I have an existing
uw-imapd installation which I need to migrate and Cyrus doesn't seem to
have any migration tools, unlike one of the others.  If I were planning to
have 250,000 users then it might be worth it, but with just 4 it's
probably overkill.

Thanks for all the suggestions.
