Mail setup: Weird or what?

[Bill Smithem <fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I've been using what's probably a rather strange mail configuration.  
I'd like to update my mail server to FC2 and since I have to redo 
everything due to the IMAP server change I wanted to run this past you 
all and see if there was a better way to accomplish this (and to see how 
off the wall I am for putting it all together this way <g>).

What I wanted was all of my e-mail from all accounts to be spam 
filtered, sorted into various incoming mail folders, and have all this, 
including my saved mail, be available whether I'm at my desk, using the 
wireless notebook, or sitting at my wife's Windoze PC.  This needs to 
work with any MUA that supports IMAP.

Set up is:

fetchmail is pulling e-mail for multiple pop3 accounts and depositing it 
into my mailbox.

procmail running under a dummy user account is routing all of this 
e-mail through spamassassin and sorting it into several categories.  The 
dummy user was invented so that the mail files wouldn't be scattered all 
over my home directory.

The IMAP server is providing access to the dummy user's mail account 
from all the machines on my LAN (some linux boxes and a couple of 
Windoze PCs) via various and sundry MUAs.

I'm sure there is a more sensible way to accomplish this, but it wasn't 
obvious to me when I set this mess up.  Anyone care to provide any 
useful suggestions?

Take care,
Bill
