I don't know about any insecurities in the IMAP protocol itself other than 
cleartext transmission (I would look for servers and clients that support 
some form of encryption, like I have with POP). I'm planning to use this too, 
but since it's only for a private online access system and it will be running 
on the mailserver, I plan to put it in a restricted section of my SSL server.
