well I don't use it directly from the imap persay but here is most likely why. 
I use postfix, dovecot and maildrop. With this setup you can have you email 
filtered for you so when you log into your imap account it is already 
filtered and were everything should go. I also in my case have maildrop setup 
to do the spam and virii filtering. This comes in handy for being able to let 
the users adjust their own email settings. All this also ties in perfectly 
with squirrelmail which I have running on top of dovecot also.
