DR,
Likewise, I have 2 imaps configured with ~ 60 folders total. I just use the
inboxes for the imap itself and then use the normal threaded view and/or sort by
sender and move messages into their respective folders. I haven't worked with
seive yet or taken the time to setup procmail beyond spamassassin. I haven't
noticed any changes. I just rely on the folder highlighting and the count for
new mail message ID. Dunno if it helps, but here is a small screenshot of the
view that provides.
