We're using courier-imap on Debian internally. I don't want this server
open to the outside world. Instead I would like another courier-imap in
proxy mode, preferably in a DMZ, using fail2ban, and authorising against
a list of accounts marked as having remote access. It's not something I
have time to try out myself and get right. I've read Dovecot may not
play as nice with Blackberries (our main requirement) due to some issue
with the IMAP IDLE command - I may be wrong.
