I don't know about Bastien, but for me, since I use Gmail I heavily rely on both filtering and spam detection. I use Gmails filtering eventhough it is a bit clunky to avoid setting up something on my end; I find it simpler this way. And the spam detection, I find Gmail's spam detection to be very good, specially when you have been training it for a few years by reporting spam and phishing messages, as appropriate. > + you said you're running Dovecot.

Probably Bastien has more up to date comments, but last time I looked, I found Gnus's support for maildir rather poor. There were a few issues, it didn't respect the usual maildir flags and stored its own flags withing the maildir. So along with incorrect flag, the mail store took about ~70% more disk space. It was also a bit slow, despite everything being local. My impression is based on the status from about 2-3 years back, so things might have improved a lot by now. Hope this helps, -- Suvayu Open source is the future. It sets us free.
