Hello,

Note that Dovecot comes with the Server version of the OS only.
Cost shouldn't be a problem -the Server package is terribly affordable- but, for the purpose you are considering, installing it on a client machine may be somewhat overkill, or even problematic (after all, a server isn't supposed to be run as a general purpose GUI machine...).
On the other hand, Dovecot compiles easily and without a glitch on Mac OS X.

HTH,
Axel
