(I am a Linux only user & MELT software developer, and use Linux since kernel 0.99.15 e.g. the previous century)I have a VPS host ovh.starynkevitch.net  (running Linux) which is also the MX host for my email. It is getting emails only for less than a dozen users (my relatives, i.e. kids, grand-children, wife). So a quite small traffic. the MTA is exim4 ...I specifically don't want to use gmailI have secure ssh (public-key, so without passwords) access to that machine (from every -latop or desktop machine I am working on).I want to be able to read (and post, but SMTP forwarding is not an issue) my email thru it.Up to now, I forwarded my email (to some home server). In practice, I want to run some graphical MUA (e.g. sylpheed or evolution ...) because I am tired of mutt...I also want to be able to use some spam filter like spamoracle; it has to run on my VPS host (not locally on the MUA machines). And I need to conveniently be able (with a single keystroke!) to improve (by the usual machine learning techniques) its filtering.I was thinking of installing some IMAP server (like the imapd from GNU mailutils). But then, it is less easy to use spamoracle with it. I thought of:Using imapd above SSL or some other secure transport. But then I am not familiar with the configuration, and I have no idea if the SSL should be related to my ssh settings or not.doing port redirection with ssh Any hints or some other solutions?
