That's an interesting idea.. The only problem though, is getting  
procmail to work with that set up.. Unless there is some way to  
convert/read pst format files?

Does anyone know, when you copy mail from a client to an imap folder,  
what process that involves? E.g. can procmail be configured to filter  
messages when they are copied? Or would I need to have some sort of  
cron job running procmail against their maildir?

Cheers,
Jerahmy.
