That's because UW-IMAP (with mbox) allows only a single IMAP  
connection to access the mailbox at the same time (new connection  
kicking out the old one). There never were multiple clients connected  
to it at the same time.

I don't really have any good solutions for this, except how about  
trying to get rid of client-side filters and use Sieve instead?
