Hello, 

This may sound like overkill, but I've found that the most reliable set-up is to simply configure fetchmail, procmail, spamassassin, dovecot and postfix properly, and just use whatever client you prefer as an IMAP reader. I used to move between a couple of clients, but now I'm pretty much settled on KMail and Gnus.

If everything else is configured properly, you'll never face something like this again. It's well worth the one-time investment.
