They are separate tasks.  exim handles the inbound mail and stores it in
/var/mail/user, and imap provides access to /var/mail/user.

Package exim for the mail transport, and package uw-imapd or
uw-imapd-ssl for the client connections.

Configure them separately ...

- install exim,
- configure exim,
- test that a local mail reader (e.g. mutt) can operate,
- install an imapd,
- test that a remove mail reader can access the mail spools.
