Right now I cannot install MTA/IMAP server-side filters (procmail,
maildrop, sieve, et al) on my my systems.  I've looked through the
existing filters and they all presume I've got this, or bayes, or AV
filters running on the mail server.

Isn't there a  way to do SquirrelMail-based filters?  The Options ->
Message Highlighting code does most of what's needed: it scans
messages at read time looking for From/To/CC/Subject and changes
background color based on a match. 

A SquirrelMail-based filter could do the same thing, but upon match,
could issue the IMAP command to move the message from one folder
(e.g., INBOX) to another (e.g., Postmaster, or Trash, or...).

[My main mail reader, Gnus under Emacs, does this.  It retrieves a msg
 from INBOX, looks at my lit of "nnimap-split-rule"s for a match, then
 moves to the folder each rule specifies.  Totally IMAP client-side.
 SquirrelMail could do this too, since it's also an IMAP client.]

I realize client-side (SquirrelMail) filters would be slower than
MTA-based or IMAP-based filters, but slow functionality's better
than nonexistent fast functionality. :-)


Is there such a thing, or have any of you implemented anything like this? 

Thanks.
