Two sets of filtering rules nearly always exposes something you haven't
thought of.

I never managed to get Evolution to quickly do filtering, it was always
slower than anything else I tried (even my old 16 MHz Amiga on dialup
was quicker at fetching and sorting).  It didn't matter what headers I
used, nor how the mail was stored.

Eventually I decided to bite the bullet and figure out how to use
sieve, especially as I have one IMAP server, but access it using
several mail clients on different computers.  Filtering just happens in
the background, all the time now, as it comes in rather than only when
I use an email program.

Now I just use Evolutions rules to resort a few emails still in my
inbox after they've become read (archiving rules, so to speak).  Speed
doesn't matter then.
