1. Check there is data in the log file(s).
2. Ensure Logwatch has the correct location and names of your log files.
Check: /usr/share/logwatch/default.conf/logfiles/ - there should be a
'imapd' file there. I don't use imapd and there is no such file on my
instances of C6.
Using my /usr/share/logwatch/default.conf/logfiles/exim.conf as an
example (I don't use any of these entries):-

User changes should be in: /etc/logwatch/conf/logfiles
My /etc/logwatch/conf/logfiles/eximlog.conf has:-

3. The name I use 'eximlog.conf' is defined
in /etc/logwatch/conf/services/exim.conf
4. Check for a script in: /usr/share/logwatch/scripts/services/imapd
5. Put modifications (whole replacement scripts)
in /etc/logwatch/scripts/services/imapd
6. You can then test Logwatch by logging-on to the server and typing
logwatch --print --service imapd --range today
The range can also be: yesterday or even '-21 days' (with apostrophes)
The problem with log watch is far too many names identical or almost
identical.
Good Luck.
