It should be whatever you think it should be, whether that's a cronjob or a elite team of spam analyzing monkeys is up to you. :) I concur that fetchmail wouldn't need to re-deliver the email anywhere, it's meerly that the MTA will have much better error handling than a pipe-chain, IME. > 1.

Yet, I for one find the results of a few well written procmail rules to be quite rewarding. I personally use: fetchmail => exim => procmail => Courier IMAPd. De gustibus non est disputandum. > 2.
