You don't mention a mail store [IMAP Server]? Such as Cyrus IMAP. Something for Postfix to deliver the mail too.
Mail store != imap server. Mail store = structure for mboxes/maildirs.
Cyrus is sort of its own thing with its own mail store.
Sorry, I keep forgetting about that crap... Never touched it and never wanted to after I heard the screams from a friend who used cyrus and swore by it until he got corrupt mailboxes. Had to help setup postfix, dovecot and vpopmail iirc.
People with bad hardware can break anything; and you're probably talking about old versions anyway [anything with indexes/databases can corrupt].
Cyrus is incredibly reliable, stable and fast. And the latest 2.4.x series closes numerous potential issues with how databases are managed.
