dovecot is probably an easier, more familiar drop-in replacement for
those familiar with uw-imapd

cyrus-imapd is a full featured imap server which I have found to be a
real high performance machine but not without a small configuration
learning curve. cyrus-imapd is pretty much set up for virtual accounts,
virtual domains, ldap and other more robust features.

Good luck
