It seems that Evolution has defaulted to checked for spam server side using Spamd on Fedora Core 3 without downloading the mail. It seems that spamd is the culprit in all this as it's trying to analyze pop3 mail without simply downloading all the new mail.
How's it doing that? Is it invoking spamc after each pop3 fetch client-side? Or is it somehow getting Dovecot to do it on the server side?
I normally run SA from sendmail via MIMEDefang to reject the most egregious spam (score higher than 10) and viruses and then run SA again from /etc/procmailrc to mark "probable" spam (scores between 5 and 10) during delivery into my IMAP folders. (I could do it all in MD but my load is small enough that it hasn't been worth the coding effort.)
