This has been asked for once, but I don't know of an existing patch to
do it.

It's not hard to do, but I clearly wouldn't want to complicate popa3d
with a hack like this, especially given that I see very little use in
combining popa3d (with its security as the primary goal) and uw-imap
(with doesn't care about its security) on one box.  This is not the
only IMAP server out there.  For example, you might want to look at
http://dovecot.procontrol.fi
