However the fact the answer to any semi-complex mail need is to set up a
private imap server tells a lot about the state of our email clients.

You could do a lot of what imap offers just by standardising the MUA
backends to maildir, but everybody talks about the UI and forgets the
backend part (in fact it's quite surprising we managed to get good imap
servers out since we insist on using last century's tech with mbox and
sendmail as our defaults)
