IMAP setup

New to Linux ..

If anyone knows what to do great, if not, please recommand another package (with instructions please)

:-(

I would like to install an IMAP server on RH 7.2

I installed imap-2001a using RPM from RH site.

now what ?
Where ever I look for help there is:

"do I need to config any text files ?"

and the answer is "No it is plug and play"

What do they mean ???? where the hell do I configure the mail boxes ?

I was looking at the "home" directory of the users, nothing there, read their CONFIG instructions, no help there ..

Thank you
