I do this exact thing, and it is faster than gmail itself.  With IDLE, I 
get the msg alert on my dovecot server before the web interface shows a 
new message.

Also, far more reliable, with a superior UI.

:That's so much easier and more common. You get the benefit of good
:filtering, and you have your own server to access your mail. If your own
:server goes down, you still have gmail as backup.
