I can’t speak to the IMAP-*v*-POP3 debate, but I would really love the
ability to export a series of messages as a .mbox file in the same
format that Apple Mail does.
In addition to using SpamSieve on my Mac (which is quite good), I
maintain my own mail server (Mac OS X 10.6.8, until I am forced to
“upgrade”) and use SpamAssassin there to try to intercept as much
crud as possible *before* it gets to SpamSieve. Apple Mail produces the
perfect .mbox files for feeding to SpamAssassin’s spam-learning
routines, so periodically I have to haul Mail out, select all the junk
that SpamAssassin needs to learn how to intercept, and File > Save As…
(raw source) to a file that I can then drag to the server and run
learnspam against.
