WHy you dunno this? My mail must arrive somewhere, from where I can
fetch it with fetchmail+imap when I'm online again with my FreeBSD netbook or
my Ubuntu mobile phone

normally a sane ISP *should* have proper spamfilters

yes, it *should* but does not;

why then use this one?

and provide IMAP
directly, so no need for fetchmail and a local filter - but your
decision,

I could use IMAP directly with, for example, mutt -f imaps://imap.1blu.de
and mutt can to SMTP upstream directly; but this would mean to be online
all the time while reading; in situations where you pay by time of
connection (for example in hotels in Havana), it is better to fetch all mails 
in a
few seconds, drop the Internet connection (and stop paying), read and
answer offline, open Internet again and send all answers out upstream at
once; do you get my point?

there are mail clients with offline caching, but that's off-topic

if i would be you i would rop the ISP, point the MX to a cheap
VPS and install my own MTA + Postscreen + SpamAssassin + IMAP there

what is a VPS?
