It just works, once you tell the client to look in the right place.
What client are you using?
What did you tell it for the path to the folder?
Is /var/spool/mail/peter a mbox folder or maildir?
uw supports both formats, courier only supports maildir
As a last resort, use tcpflow to capture the IMAP conversation and see
what it is your client is asking for and what imapd is giving back.

How to shoot yourself in the foot with Java:
You find that Microsoft and Sun have released incompatible class
libraries both implementing Gun objects. You then find that although
there are plenty of feet objects implemented in the past in many other
languages, you cannot get access to one. But seeing as Java is so cool,
you don't care and go around shooting anything else you can find.
