  I'm in the process of looking at routing incoming e-mail into folders.  I 
am having trouble accepting that the client should do it.

  I'm planning to use thunderbird, but many of my users want web-based mail 
clients.  However, if the server isn't doing the message routing, then the 
user has to configure both the web-client and the imap-client with the same 
routing rules.  Is this acceptable to other sys admins?

  I'm going to assume that Kelly's parents aren't in this category, so 
obviously, she has made a good decision.  (OK, not that you needed 
validation from me, eh?)
