Setting it up isn't hard, there are plenty of good tutorials online for 
whatever IMAP server you want to use.  And, I recommend this method as 
well.  If you have a box at home that can store the mail, having a 
single point for packing up mail is much better.

For IMAP, I recommend Dovecot.  It's always been reliable and easy to 
set up.  But any IMAP server will work fine.  I've used most of them at 
various times.
