We do per-user threshold comparisons for smtp protocol-violation 'demerits'
- and per-user spam threshold settings in ordinary acl's

AND - based on results, add selective headers that later determine if a message 
is put into a specific folder, left alone, or discarded.

MAY be replacing the headers with acl_(x) variables.
That part not yet tested.

Either way - acl. Filter not needed.

A 'warn' verb preceding the tests pulls the per-user numbers and puts them into 
acl_m variables.

Well 'rational' - not 'nefarious'  ;-).

'Spose you could use the list name instead of 'Read'?

The right clever code would auto-create new folders for new lists?

ACK. Done in Moz MUA here.  Easier to alter.
