My own Perl IMAP mod_perl routines use this:

<http://search.cpan.org/~mws/ResourcePool-1.0104/lib/ResourcePool.pod>

Works flawlessly - but you still have the problem that you have X 
connections per user for X httpd processes running. I/We wrote a web 
frontend for those who don't want to use Webmail (the majority do use their 
own MUA), but still want to control their anti spam settings, quotas, 
automatic vacation responses, automatic expiration of messages in 
user-selectable folders (via annotations.db). We also use annotaton 
heaviliy to preempt spam folders to be indexed by squatter.
