Subject: nnmaildir vs nnimap (dovecot@localhost)
Date: Wed, 09 Sep 2020 10:15:35 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87zh5z8ixk.fsf@atmarama.com> (raw)
Hello,
at the moment I use nnmaildir back-end to access all my emails - several
accounts + ~65k old archive. For fetching messages and feeding my
~/Maildir I use mbsync + notmuch as search engine.
in #gnus I did ask about pro/cons in using nnimap back-end by having
dovecot running locally on localhost, but would like to get some input
here?
Since I like notmuch's query capabilities, I wonder if I can keep using
it along with nnimap/dovecot?
Any other pro/cons?
I was also considering to use getmail to fetch/sort/scan my email, but
decided to stay with mbsync since I have a need to occasionally check
email with my Android phone and will delegate sorting/scanning to the
provider's server.
Sincerely,
Gour
