Settings can be different if IMAP server uses shared folders.

Possible server values are:
 bincimap    = Binc IMAP server
 courier     = Courier IMAP server
 cyrus       = Cyrus IMAP server
 dovecot     = Dovecot Secure IMAP server
 exchange    = Microsoft Exchange IMAP server

* Server side sorting and threading are not supported.
* Message flags are not supported.
* IMAP folders can store messages _or_ other folders.
* Supports STARTTLS, if configured.
* May have issues with 8bit IMAP folder names.

$imap_server_type variable is used to handle imap folder subscription
differences.

              imap_server_type = mercury32
         default_folder_prefix = <none> (is set to empty string)
                  trash_folder = Trash

-------------------
'dovecot' settings:
-------------------
Preset used for Dovecot Secure IMAP server. Available since 1.5.1 and 1.4.6.

There is no code specific to Dovecot IMAP server. Preset provides only a quick
way to set correct folder settings. Preset works with any IMAP server that does 
not store IMAP folders under INBOX and IMAP folders can store messages and other
folders. Preset can also be used with Bejy IMAP server.

IMAP server supports server side sorting and threading.

              imap_server_type = dovecot
         default_folder_prefix = <none> (is set to empty string)
                  trash_folder = Trash

      force_username_lowercase = true


--------------------
'bincimap' settings:
--------------------
Preset is used with Binc IMAP server. Available since 1.5.1 and 1.4.6.

IMAP server does not support server side sorting and threading. Plain text 
logins are disabled by default. Due to available storage backend configuration 
options it is impossible to create single preset, which covers all setups.

* Default (1.2.13) configuration with Maildir++ depot and / delimiter
              imap_server_type = bincimap (is used to handle INBOX in folder management)
         default_folder_prefix = INBOX/
                  trash_folder = Trash
                   sent_folder = Sent
                  draft_folder = Drafts
            show_prefix_option = false
          default_sub_of_inbox = false
show_contain_subfolders_option = false
            optional_delimiter = / (can be set to 'detect')
                 delete_folder = true
      force_username_lowercase = false (depends on checkpassword)

* Default (1.3.4) configuration with IMAPdir depot - same as dovecot ?
              imap_server_type = bincimap
         default_folder_prefix = <none> (is set to empty string)
                  trash_folder = Trash
                   sent_folder = Sent
                  draft_folder = Drafts
            show_prefix_option = false
          default_sub_of_inbox = false
show_contain_subfolders_option = false
            optional_delimiter = / (can be set to 'detect')
                 delete_folder = true
      force_username_lowercase = false (depends on checkpassword)


* Configuration with Maildir++ depot and . delimiter - use courier preset.
