But IMAP uses normal unix password mechanism to identificate users. So if You 
want to use IMAP with LDAP, the pam_ldap authentification should work for 
normal users. So If I would do that I make pam_ldap working for normal users, 
and than IMAP should work also.
Best regards.
PS. If Yoy are going to have thouthands of users, IMAP and thouthands users in 
users You computer would be a headache. Consider using Cyrus or Courier
