As far as I know We do not need to have any extra service running

I do not see this entry in your file
imap.server.host=localhost

where localhost needs to be replaced by the ip.

Hi Mitpatoliya
Your feedback was valuable, I changed it and when I started the service as root I was able to get some progress.
Now my thunderbird tries to get connected and it gives message


The current operation on 'inbox' did not succed. The mail server account admin@dm responed invalid command
‍‍‍

What would be the possible reason
Guidance requested.

Thanks mitpatoliya
The above problem was because the imap client(thunder bird) was looking for the folder 'Inbox' to subcribe.
I tried with OutLook express and it worked.
Now I am able to move or copy emails to DM folders using outlook
