boris,
The IMAP extension has been removed from versions 8.4 in PHP and is no more an official part of the main distribution.
So when upgrading, you old IMAP extension for version 8.3 remained there and PHP 8.4 was not able to start it due to a mismatch in its API.
You did the right thing by disabling it in php.ini.
