I use it as a sync tool for each new mail I receive.

My domain provider offers to me a very small mailbox. Enough for a couple of mails but way too small to use as an IMAP server.

So I run a dovecot IMAP server on my RPI and trigger for each new mail imapsync to copy mails over to my dovecot and delete mails on my small mailbox. Works like a charm and allows me to have a virtually infinite sized mailbox for very little money. Plus, all my mails are in my home under my control instead of lying on some server somewhere.

What do you use for search?

Thunderbird on my PC, K9 on Android. The "search on server" works there quite well.
