> [nnimap or nnmaildir for synching imap] I use a local dovecot imap server that synchronizes several imap accounts using offlineimap. From Gnus, I access it via nnimap. This works very reliable for more than a year now. Before, I used offlineimap to populate maildirs and accessed those with the nnmaildir backend. But that was very slow for big groups. The switch to a local dovecot imap server was quite easy. To configure dovecot for my needs, there's no magic involved. I can send you my configs to get you started. > Criteria that are important to me: > > - robustness Absolutely. > - speed (generating the summary buffer, selecting articles, moving > articles between groups) Very fast, much faster than nnmaildir, at least for groups with a lot of articles. > - ability to edit articles Dunno 'bout that one... > - search Dovecot has several full text search plugins that speed up imap SEARCH commands. For interfacing with it, I use nnir. Setup is a one-liner for each account.
