if you're using standard mbox format, dovecot is your freind and
is faster than imap-uw since they are indexes. it also known about
courier's maildir format and is really simple to configure.

if you're using maildir mbox format, consider courier-imap or binc-imap.
if you're using virtual domains, courier-imap would be your friend.

This isn't Linux. :-)  POP servers are neither traditional BSD
software nor useful to the majority of FreeBSD systems so they live in
ports.  There are quite a large number of them there in the mail
category.
