If you need any help I'm willing.

I use uw-imap from sources, and follow the user's list.  The current 
stable version, 2007, builds out of the box on Cygwin and just have a 
few differences with other environments (no support for mix format 
mailboxes, tmail with Exim seem to cut messages randomly -- I haven't 
tested if this one has changed, I last observed it with version 2006k).

Regards.
