IMAP server is installed as an RPM. IMAP client setup depends on your
MUA. Configure according to individual instructions (like Netscape or
Mozilla). Usually its pretty simple. Specify an SMTP outgoing interface
ISP and an IMAP server machine name and directory path for incoming.

My suspicion is that you might change your mind on POP3, if the server is
on the Internet over a slow link. IMAP browsing of your mail gets tedious
with slow links.
