Just to butt in with something that might be worth considering:

I use RocketMail (http://www.rocketmail.com) for my "public face" in the
email world with exactly the setup that Eric describes (filtering to
different mailboxes with spam filtering added) ... works a treat,
although a web-based email client tends to give a slower response time
when loading/replying to emails, and also you need to be online.

My solution to the "need to be online" problem is that I forward those
emails that I need to read in detail to my private (local) account ...
this way I am able to cope with the 400 emails that I receive a day.
