Well, the "interface you want" is the part I'm mostly focused on here.
I don't really care what underlying protocol it uses to communicate.
It just needs a way for it to look the same on the web and on android,
and be self-hosted.  Mail isn't my only focus but in the case of mail
I'm more interested in the MUA than the MTA, though there is a bit of
a link only because I'm not sure how well IMAP handles tags.  (GMail
supports IMAP but I think they just map every tag to a virtual folder
- I'm not sure how well that works in practice.)

I don't want one of those situations where I end up with 3 copies of
the same thing that all end up being slightly out of sync with each
other.
