I run cyrus-imapd, have done so for years. I do find it near zero admin. 
If you want mysql backend support, use via pam_mysqld, takes all of 
about 2 minutes to setup. It usually takes me longer to get postfix 
setup and running against the mysql hosted userlist than cyrus.

And acquisition of the app does not get easier than yum installing it 
out of the base repo, with the assurance of it being supported within 
the distro framework.

perhaps I should say 'does not need excessive admin, nothing more than 
what you would expect with any imapd'
