How to filter IMAP e-mail server-side, automatically move messages to IMAP folders

Is it possible to filter IMAP e-mail server-side, automatically move messages to IMAP folders.

I'd like to be able to access my IMAP boxes from anywhere, any client, be it webmail or whatever, and still retain the folders and do not need any filtering client side.

What I want is to be able to setup filters in the HostingRails side that automatically moves certain criteria to specific folders. (and lots of them!!! I have about 100 filters in my Thunderbird right now! I don't want to recreate that in all clients)

Please help. Thank you.

Ceefour,

I have successfully written somewhat similar filter on a server where mail is stored in mbox format. As HostingRails use mail dir format to store email, I don't think you can do this by writing any filters using the cPanel's add filters feature. I'm not aware of any method to implement what you have suggested..
