Sometimes I have to make a living :-)

If this patch works out ok, I'll add it to the debian packages as a
dpatch. The main question is: how does this patch work for databases
that don't have the new filter table. But I'll have to read the patch
first I guess. If it degrades gracefully on existing installs, or
doesn't cause any regressions, there's no real reason not to include
such added features. Lets see how this works out first.

Just during delivery (smtp/lmtp). I just rewrote the append code in 2.1
last week, so I can tell you for sure it's a different beast all together.

sort_and_delivery is indeed the most obvious entry point for sorting. If
that breaks stuff like _imap_append, then _imap_append is broken (duh).

Oh boy. What use is filtered delivery if you don't use imap???  So I
assume you do use imap. Append is what happens when you copy messages
from a folder in one account to another account or when your client
stores a sent message to the Sent folder.
