Hello, I am looking to organize and clean my emails. I have 9 domains
with 60K emails. I want to organize and clean the spam content. I
found SaneBox which offers what I need, but I prefer a locally hosted
solution without giving access to SaneBox. So, guys, what do you use
to organize emails in IMAP?

I tried Thunderbird, but every time I ran it, the app go down with no
responding. It has a configuration of 8C/2TB/16G/2.5G/s.

So you had no spam filter and now you want to classify spam
afterwards?
Like looping over mails with spamassasin or rspamd?

Some time ago I started doing research in a similar direction. Sanebox
from their description does more than just filtering out spam, it
classifies mails and then files them away in a way that supposedly
helps you finding it afterwards.

Along with a local ai this surely can be a helpful feature to some
users, but I did not find any project that implements similar
features.

because its not needed. Every provider has spamfiltering and rejects
Spam in realtime (which is far more efficient).
And statistiscal models are already used (most widespread are
spamassasin/rspamd) and they learn.

And only sorting mail ist imho weak as feature, folders and searching
works.
