Hi,
If you're going to do a filter plugin, I see three ways to do so:
 * Implement a unique plugin that will be able to handle multiple filtering
systems (client-side, sieve, exim, etc)
 * Implement multiple plugins, one for each filtering system
 * Implement one general plugin with some hooks (Filter API) where each
particular plugin (client-side, sieve, etc) would use them

Just as a suggestion, I recommend to implement the simpler one (just
client-side filtering plugin, as you say) and then see wich of these options
is better/easier to implement and to manage. Personally, I'd prefer the
thirst solution, which is extensible, clearer and faster (I suppose).

See you!!
