I thought he was just musing about finding a delivery agent that
included a filtering language.  Not sure what good having such a thing
in the IMAP server does, although I know some support it.  Seems to me
that a facility to re-deliver mail or other general ways to give a
message to a standalone tool (as briefly discussed a while ago) would
be superior.
