That all depends on the service you are going to provide to the users.
Nearly all ISP's that I know of only offer POP3 access to the email
INBOX. This is not unreasonable, as the clients can then use local
storage and folders for their email needs. Private mail services for
an organization are different, and so ar the requirements for web based
systems such as Hotmail and the like.
