I had a very brief talk with Ken about this ages back, about creating a non-standard extension to IMAP that would allow you to "run" a sieve script against a bunch of messages in a mailbox, and either perform the action, or return an "action response" string back for each message. My thinking is I'd love to add to our web interface a way to say either "run sieve on selected messages" or "show actions on selected messages". For the second, it would basically "group by" the list of returned actions, and let you use a checkbox to decide which ones to actually do. More complex, but more powerful to. In theory it shouldn't be *too* hard, since the sieve bytecode interpreter allows you to specify exactly what callback you want to run for each sieve action, so you could embed it in imapd and setup the appropriate callbacks to do the actions or return the appropriate string responses. Still, it's at least a couple of weeks of programming work, and since it's completely non-standard, I doubt it would make it back into the CVS code base.
