It would involve supporting several different methods and possible 
configurations, file locking issues, etc. - although I *think* it could 
be done the way it is now - after a fashion.

What do I mean? Well, since you can "Archive Mail =" by ruleset, you can 
selectively archive mail to an IMAP-readable folder - which is what I've 
done for some clients. Of course, this would be an archive and not a 
"delivery" per se - but you could set both spam and nonspam actions to 
delete and *then* archive to an IMAP-readable folder on a user's home 
directory (permissions permitting).

Wouldn't be much useful as a delivery method per se, but for archiving 
it's quite handy.

Now, if the original poster meant "deliver *only spam* to an IMAP 
folder", you could set spam actions to forward to a specific mailbox, 
which would then be readable using IMAP.
