I work on a module for Cyrus-imap. I have started from IMAPv4 Server 
module but i have mostly completely rewrited it. I needed 
internationalization support (French specially) and more 
features(support for different hierarchy separator, cascading delete, 
editing configuration file...) . 
I don't needed to rewrite all but i have a lot of fun to do it :-). 
Actually internationalization and  hierarchy separator are ok. I have 
changed to Cyrus::IMAP::Admin instead NET::IMAP::Admin perl module  ( 
maybe a not so good idea but i will see now).

kind regards

Kardiac
