My mail provider just changed to a new server -- same email address, just a new hostname (and domain), but from a user standpoint, otherwise the same, including support for POP connections.

I'm trying to figure what the best way of handling the update is.

I know that in the past, when I changed email providers (including email address) on a different account, I merely updated the hostname, email address and password in the existing account, although that made my profile pretty ugly, with a mix of host/provider names, even if it all worked correctly.

For this change, I'm inclined to keep things cleaner by setting up a new account, but on this one I have a rather extensive set of message filters defined -- this address subscribes to a lot of mailing lists, and it's helpful to use filters to put list traffic into specific folders (both in keeping the inbox clean, as well as topic-specifc folders).

Thus the question is of whether there's an easy way of copying existing filters from one account to another, or if I'm stuck with re-creating all the filters by hand. Or doing another messy transition of changing the server name for the existing account.
