Even if you don't have any programming experience you can still do that. There are dozens of HOW-TOs, forums web sites and people that will guide you through the process of compiling support for something into the kernel

kmail supports imap
kopete is a linux based: yahoo instant messenger, AIM, Jabber, ICQ, IRC, and even MSN, etc. You can use any of the IM networks with it or almost all.
Webmail is a function of the webserver/browser, I have no problem using webmail with mozilla or konquerer.
