Thats not true, it can access your ISP's mail server. But it puts the command line to sleep (but doesn't miss what you type) while its doing it, so I automated that as a separate process with fetchmail which scans my ISP's server at 2 minute intervals. Which hands the mail delivery off to procmail, which in turned runs the incoming mail thru both spamassassin and clamav by way of custom recipes, depositing what survives that gauntlet into /var/spool/mail/$username, and inotifywait see's that and tells kmail by way of dbus, to go get the local mail and sort it into its proper directories. This only takes a few milliseconds per message. Much less annoying. I in my dotage, at 86, am basically lazy. Let the computer do all that drudgery work. life is much simpler that way.
