Eventually found Pierre's stuff, hooked up with Pierre himself (nice, 
helpful guy) and got it going a little bit. Now to do some more research 
and tweaking around. Like I would like to have everything sent to all 
users in my "domain" delivered to me. Actually I would like to have 
things delivered to valid users to them and everything else delivered to 
me. I'm sure it's simply a matter a learning the proper configuration to 
do this.
On another note, suddenly the IMAP daemon I had set up and had been 
successfully running now coredumps!
But I'm getting closer...
