Yay, spammer heaven.

1) Configure your IMAP server to use a SQL db to store users, passwords and
spool location.  Quota too if possible.

2) Write a simple bit of PHP or Perl or any other web scripting language you
choose to spit out your questions, accept the answers, validate the answers
and write the answers to a DB.

3) Send user a mail asking for confirmation of desire of account.  On receipt
of link being clicked to say that they accept terms and want the account, move
the needed data to the SQL db that drives IMAP.

Sit back and watch spammers sign up to use your service (unless it's on an
internal only network or has similar protection like a known password to
access the signup).
