I would recommend courier-imap / courier-pop3d / courier-imaps /
courier-pop3ds
Dovecot is fine for small networks I find (use at home network), however
for large loads (and in a multi-user environment, where quality is
important) would use courier, note, courier dirs not compatible with
dovecot (went to change to see ... and was unable, but after further
testing decided against it anyway).
I would advise IMAP over pop....much nicer :)
Although if on slow connections, pop can be handy
