Yep, works great, thanks.

The patch required minor manual intervention patching against 6.2.5, 
but no doubt you made it against a more recent version.

I hope this makes it into the main version, it makes it much easier 
to take advantage of spam filters on IMAP servers (and any other 
server filters, for that matter).

Thanks again.
