Thanks Juan. I will look into it. However, I have been reading through
the PHP Groupware website and the Installation HOWTO mentions SQL
database. Which is better (for us!), MySQL or PostgreSQL?

I am on the look out for a Dovecot IMAP HOWTO. Any ideas?

You may also want to install the following:
    amavisd-new - checks messages for viruses and spam for postfix
    clamav - a virus checker that can be used by amavisd-new
    up-imapproxy - caches imap connections to speed up webmail

clamav is just one of many checks that amavisd-new can run.
