Gotcha.

I covered that at:

That's just what I needed.  Thanks!  I didn't realize until yesterday that
the lack of a common filtering method was pretty much the sole component
that keeps me from switching email clients at will.  If I can get the
server-side filtering to the point I like it, I should be able to use any
number of clients (depending on whether I'm at a local X terminal, SSH'ing
in remotely, etc.) without any significant difference in functionality.
That's pretty slick.

Feel free.  Of course, be advised that the document is on a Wiki server, and
therefore subject to change (even by people other than me) at any time.
