I'd go with Cyrus. I'm running it here. The only problem with it is
that it keeps a proprietary directory and mailbox format. So if you
ever want to leave it, you'll have to figure out how to get all the
mail out.
The sieve stuff works well (although sieve package for XEmacs is a
little broken).
I did not like Courier's documentation, and the roughness of the
install and configuration.
