Thanks Jamin for your earlier response, but I just have a problem with
DJB, and I steer clear of qmail and related products.

Thanks for the response, Keith. I managed to get Cyrus set up. So now I
fetchmail the email, route it through procmail, deposit it via
cyrdeliver and read it through Mutt, Evolution or Squirrelmail (really
cool web-based interface).

However, I did have a slight problem with the "From " header. I cannot
figure out and what stage it gets put in, but it seems that cyrdeliver
doesn't like because it's not compatible with the Maildir (?) format
Cyrus uses. Currently, I am routing all mail through Spamassassin using
the -F0 option, which removes this header, but there's got to be a
better way of doing it.

Any pointers on what the "From " header is and why Cyrus doesn't like
it? Previously I was using only POP and storing the email in mbox
format.

Thanks.
