I have a fairly crufty package that we're using, and is available for download from our anon-ftp site, ftp.celestial.com: /private/ftp.openpkg.org/release/2.0/SRC/courier-imap-1.5.3-20040429.src.rpm Be warned that the courier-imap.spec file will probably drive speclint nuts. As soon as my shipment of round tuits arrives I will clean this, and update to the current courier-imap sources. BTW: I much prefer the Courier Maildir to Cyrus' method. It's far easier to maintain as one can use standard *nix tools without worrying about dealing with the proprietary Cyrus database.
