Is there a way to write portable shell scripts. In particular,
I've problems with built-ins setenv (tcsh) and export (bash).
How do I define variables in tcsh and have them usable in bash
too?

Before I file a bug report, I'd like to confirm the behavior I
describe below.
I have in my my ~/.mailfilterrc a DENY rule for "^Subject:.*Test"
and ALLOW rules for "marssociety" and "marssocietynewsletter":
$ grep -Ei 'test|marssociety' ~/.mailfilterrc
DENY=^Subject:.*Test
ALLOW=^To:.*marssociet
