PHP doesn't need *an* IMAP library -- it needs the UW-IMAP c-client
library. (Note that it's a *client* library, not a server one.) But
c-client just speaks IMAP, so it doesn't care what IMAP *server*
you're using.

PHP can't use any IMAP *client library* other than c-client. (Programs
tend to have to compile against a particular library, and PHP's no
exception.)
