Somebody should have mentioned this by now:
http://ezine.daemonnews.org/200308/courier-imap.html

I don't fully understand it but found instructions somewhere in the 
courier-imap package to add this line to /etc/rc.conf:

courier_imap_imapd_enable=YES

In short I did and it does.

Now what I'd like to do is cure these messages flooding 
/var/log/maillog:

Jan  1 17:52:14 Opus imapd: Error: Input/output error
Jan  1 17:52:14 Opus imapd: Check for proper operation and configuration
Jan  1 17:52:14 Opus imapd: of the File Access Monitor daemon (famd).

Saw where fam (thats what its called on FreeBSD) likes/needs inetd 
running and an entry in /etc/inetd.conf. Everything else runs OK w/o 
inetd so I'd like to continue to do without.
