Summary     : provides support for IMAP and POP network mail protocols
Description :
IMAP is a server for the POP (Post Office Protocol) and IMAP mail protocols.
The POP protocol allows a "post office" machine to collect mail for users
and have that mail downloaded to the user's local machine for reading. The
IMAP protocol provides the functionality of POP, and allows a user to
read mail on a remote machine without moving it to his local mailbox.
