Can anyone give me some hints and tips for getting some kind of sensible
performance out of this combination, please? At the moment, I tell it to
get new mail, and Kmail basically 'freezes' for about half an hour. It
seems to be SpamAssassin that is slowing everything down, as if I disable
that, getting mail just takes a few minutes.
It would seem, also, that Kmail itself is either poorly multithreaded or not
multithreaded at all, given that the user interfaces freezes in this
manner.
Any ideas welcomed.]

My solution, perhaps not the most elegant, is just to arrange the filters so
that mail from known addresses is filtered first. Only mail from unknown
addresses goes through the spamassassin filter.

Install the spamd/spamc combination. I have a file I got from somewhere
(too lengthy to reproduce here,) that I put in /etc/init.d to run spamd as
a daemon. I then download my mail to /var/spool/mail/doug, and read it
from there with kmail. On the way "up", it is filtered through spamc, not
spamd. There is no noticeable delay that way, but I don't get a lot of
mail.

I wouldn't mind knowing why I have to force KMail to send email, everything
is set to send now but it stays in outbox until I force a send. Running
2008.1
Any idea?
