There's no reason why imapd should run on an auth server.
Lots of services change id (cpu, rx, ssh, ...).

Our auth server has gotten a lot bigger though it doesn't have to be;
we just had some 700 MH zeon's lying around when we needed a bigger
machine..

We use the same machine as an auth server, console server,
and dhcp/bootp/tftp server.  Its basicly the stand alone server that
we use to get the rest of the system up after power failures or
file server reboots.
