What "filter" are you running? What possessed you to run it inside
an email client? (What possessed Fedora to commit that atrocity?)
If you are running SpamAssassin as a filter you want to run it at the
time you "fetchmail" messages from your ISP and have the filtered and
tagged results placed in your local Dovecot mailspool. You get a small
lag on messages sent to you before they can be read. But you see no
long delays as you start your email client and roll through your
messages reading and discarding.

email addresses.)
