I use IMAP and I have the filtering set up the desktop client which I
leave open all the time at the office.
The phone sees the same folders and the filtering was done already by
the desktop client.

Subject: Re: [AFMUG] OT: Cell phone email client
Jay, I'm not aware of any android-based email app that does this. I use
k-9 mail, which has been the most feature-rich free email app I've
found.
I will also say that I think it would be a bad idea to try to do
client-side filtering on a battery-powered, small-screen, low-bandwidth
device. I just can't stop imagining edge- and corner-cases that could
be
frustrating.
If you run your own email server, look into server-side filtering. Even
if it's not something you offer other users, it's the right way to do
this. If you're using someone else's service, ask them to do
server-side
filtering or worst-case scenario have a desktop app perform this for
you.

something with filters so I can send emails with specific subject
