Hi all,

The short question (for those of you who can't be bothered to read the detail!):

What is a good IMAP server to set up on Gentoo?
How can I automatically move email from several pop servers into an
appropriate inbox on the IMAP server?

-------------------------------------------------------

The details:

I do not know very much about the mail subsystem in Linux, and so
would appreciate some help in setting up a mail system on my Gentoo
server.

1) I currently have a few pop email accounts with my ISP and others
(eg gmail), and wish to retain these accounts, as I use them for
different purposes and people already have these addresses.

2) I have a server and three client PC's set up at home. The server is
Gentoo, and the client machines are Windows XP, Kubuntu and Apples OSX
respecitvely.

3) I want to be able to access the same mail and mail folders from all
machines, and the state of those mailboxes be mirrored on all the
other machines.

4) I want to filter junk mail using SpamAssassin.

Hence, it seems to me that I want to set up an IMAP server to manage
the mailboxes and give the functionality required in (3) above. I also
need some way of downloading mail from the remote pop servers and load
them into the IMAP inbox. (4) can wait until later!

Cheers,
