If it's folder based, why not have too folders, one for categorised and
the other for uncategorised?

I'm actually looking to do this for a different setup also, which uses
squirrelmail and Cyrus, so this is also interesting :)

My though re the GUI was that sometimes it's pretty useful to be able to
run ad-hoc actions on mail messages, which is where the scripts folder
under nautilus is useful.

A possible way to do this is to modify filters slightly, such that you
can choose which filters get run automatically as messages come in, then
extend the right click menu to have a drop-down with current filter
names. This lets you choose a particular filter to run against a
message, without having to run it for every message.

Cheers,
Eamonn
