After 9+ years of running my own mail server, I have given up. Spam wins. I switched the MX record for cyphertext.net to point to gmail today. Goodbye, Gnus. I'll miss you. (Though it really was past time for me to join this decade.)
gmail now has imap, IIRC.... which is the way g-d intended it... of course, fastmail has had it for years.
Dang, Fishy, you shoulda said you were awash in spam. I took echoschildren down from 1000 a day to maybe four; I coulda helped. (Not instantly; instantly went from 1000 to 40.) Ah, well, sounds like you've got a lot more complex config than EC does; they've just got "either", "or", "both", and the RFC-required stuff... and you're still somewhat in control there. (I don't have nearly the fancy web interface-y stuff, either; it's all command-line. Which wouldn't phase mdlbear in the slightest, but...)
Keep us updated on how this works out; it's useful to have as a comparison.
I use Mutt for messing with local spool, but I find that it's a more than adequate IMAP or POP3 tool as well, if you're interested. Addicting little program...
