  The University of Washington POP3 and IMAP servers can be backended
  by a variety of stores, including MH. This is the basis for
  Netscape's store, curiously enough. I haven't looked closely at how
  Mark Crispin implemented support for the new IMAP4 features when
  using an MH backend; it seems like there is a lot of computation
  when opening a folder for the first time, writing in the UID fields
  and such. But it basically appears to work.

  But [the UW IMAP server] can't delete/expunge from MH folders. (At
  least I've never been able to get it to work, and I've tried just
  about everything.) #mh in UW imapd isn't something I'd recommend to
  any serious MH user.

  That's a very old version. delete/expunge has been in imap-4.x for a
  long while. However, there's no sticky flags.

  The converse is also true. The two don't play ball very well.

  The UW imap server supports MH folders. In order to see the MH
  mailboxes, you need to "subscribe" to the folders or add them to the
  .mailboxlist file in your home directory.
