You seem to be confused about some of these matters.
Exim: An MTA (The sending and routing part of a mail server)
IMAP: A protocol used by mail clients to read mail on an IMAP capable mail
server.
You can have Exim as MTA with am IMAP server on your machine.
I suggest you skim through the introductions of the documentation for an MTA
(for example: Exim) and an IMAP server (for example: Cyrus) so that you
understand the differences.
Before you do so, don't install a thing ;)
