We talked a little while ago in some of the spam threads (thanks again for everyone's help) about cross-server or cross-method splitting. In my current setup, I don't have control over one of the mail servers I get mail from, so i'd like to procmail the messages so as to run them through DSPAM, or similar methods. Unfortunately, I also need to be able to have the messages available on the IMAP server. Normally this would imply doing something such as an IMAP proxy or synchronizer to keep the messages equal in state, but wouldn't it be nice if: * messages were pulled down via fetchmail/procmail * messages were processed accordingly (Spamassassin, DSPAM) * messages were thrown into gnus * gnus split the messages back into their relevant folders after reading the processed headers, or expired the messages after being read into an IMAP "catchall" mailbox So there's another argument.
