You sound exactly like me. The configuration is identical on the Linux system. Two questions: 1) have you tried courier-pop? It provides a POP3 interface to the maildirs - though I presume you're restricted to using the top level folder. 2) fetchmail connecting to RBL? Really? That's OT for here, but I'd be interested in knowing how you do that, off-list. I have fetchmail proxying through popfile, which does a good job of trapping spam, but it doesn't reject it before download.
