Its good you got this working. I'm curious what process you're using
for outgoing email so you don't get dropped into spam, and what you're
doing with reading email from your phone or other IMAP device?
My server at home is sitting on a static address and reverse DNS is
delegated to my name server, so it just seems to work.
I've installed K-9 mail on my tablet and it seems to sort of work, but
it isn't marking mail as read consistently and it seems to display my
inbox in a somewhat different order than Thunderbird. Right now I don't
have a strong need to read mail on multiple devices.
I love using procmail to filter email, and sieve on an imap server
always seems like a bit of a step back, but that's probably because my
main mail client isn't amazingly IMAP aware.
Right now I am doing the filtering on my netbook. I already have about
30 rules in Thunderbird. While the filters don't seem to be as powerful
as regexes in procmail, they sure are simple to set up.
I'm also now a firm convert to postfix for my mail handling needs, and
I've been trying to get it used more at work too. Just so much easier
and straightforward when compared to sendmail and it's baroque
syntax's, both .cf and .m4 suck.
Many years ago my standard answer to "How do you set up sendmail?"
became "install Postfix".
