No, I did in the past, but I'm concerned with using up all my storage space
on my server.  Can my spamassasin on my Evolution be applied to IMAP?  I
think I ended up going through Gmail, which was great (rarely saw spam), but
I've jumped back onto the band wagon of having full control of my files
(when I get them, at least).

I'll try and work through this, update you all later.  Thanks so much for
the conversation.  I've at learned a couple things along the way
