In my view it makes sense to drop it from Fedora 35+ and take the pain

I guess https://dev.horde.org/imap_client/ would be the obvious alternative,
but Remi or other people actively involved with PHP might know more.
The real issue is probably not so much to find an alternative, but to get
all the code out there ported to it. I doubt there is a drop-in replacement
anywhere.
Maybe we should consider packaging only the C client library of uw-imap,
dropping the server? There are enough maintained IMAP servers out there.
There are a number of php-imap implementations such as:
https://github.com/barbushin/php-imap
https://github.com/Webklex/php-imap
Debian seems to just have the C client library though possibly this is
an issue to bring up on the php mailing list since it may be worth
updating the C client which is required by php:
