Any IMAP server which supports multiple connections to the same IMAP 
folder should work fine.  However with the default unix mbox format and 
UW-IMAP server, only one process can hold the lock on a folder.  I know 
that Cyrus-IMAP supports simultaneous access to the same folder, but I 
can't tell you about other IMAP servers or backends.
