Well, I probably wouldn't use POPFile itself for this anyway because I have a blindingly fast C version of the same classification techniques called polymail which I license to people. Would just have to graft on the IMAP part. Hmm.

Evening project?

Clearly, the not yet filtered bit is a nuisance, that's why you really want it to be built into your mail client.

The good thing is that now Gmail's IMAP supports OAuth, so people migh be much less reluctant to give you access to their mailboxes.

Yes, the nuisance is there, but I'm sure there is a way to solve it. The good part is that it does not make the service unusable, so, people can start using the service even though with this nuisance.

Release early and then iterate. ;-)
