Cyrus-IMAPD is a enterprise capable IMAP solution.  It takes some 
configuring to get things working the way that you want them.  What will 
you be using your IMAPD solution for?  If just yourself, I may not 
suggest Cyrus-IMAPD for that is kinda over kill...  (although I do it 
because I like Cyrus-IMAPD)

Anyway, if you want to go down the Cyrus-IMAPD route why don't you start 
by displaying your /etc/imapd.conf file so that we can make sure it is 
set up correctly.
