I am not a Lua expert but imapfilter has its limitations. There are situations where imafilter can not parse headers properly and emails from the mailing lists are not properly sorted. If I was about to re-do my email delivery flow, I would probably avoid imapfilter do to detailed work completely. On the other hand, Lua is pretty straight forward language so if there are any objections (like mine for instance) you can still fix things at home. I guess I am just too lazy to do that :-).

Nice.  I've bookmarked this as a procmail alternative :)

Have a look at imapfilter, too.  It does the same but through the IMAP
protocol in the server.  Then you can synchronize to your local folder
structure with mbsync, as discussed in another thread.  They work very
nicely together.
