 The Bat!'s IMAP filtering is broken. I doubt it will ever get fixed
 since IMAP doesn't seem to be getting much attention from the
 developers.

 This does not matter, it fails exactly the same way even if you
 download the entire messages.

 In a similar setup (Dovecot + SuSE), I moved to server-side filtering
 using SIEVE. Works like a charm. If it is a possibility for you, try
 it. You won't regret the change.
