[Nolug] IMAP and performance

Hi,

I'd like to build a mail server out of a mini-ITX box with only a,
probably, 600MHz Via C3 CPU.

Some of the directories will have 30,000+ emails in them. Will
there be a performance problem fetching emails from the server?

Also, will I have to learn procmail? My wife & I can quickly make
filters in Evolution (Tools->'Create Filter From Message' makes it
a snap), but having her log into a mail server to add procmail rules
is just not going to work. (I'm not looking forward to it either,
mind you...)

linux's large over head setting up and learning the system with
ease of use and the increase in productivity becoming larger the
longer I use the system."
