a pretty long while ago I installed my own imap server on my desktop (dovecot + 
fetchmail) and do all filtering on the server using sieve. Doing it that way makes it very 
easy to switch from one mua to another one without moving one mail. In Kmail you can't 
move messages from INBOX to other folders (in case it is not done by sieve filter), so 
sometimes claws (or evolution) is in use to move them to other folders. Apart from that 
kmail works well for me.

Kind regards
willi
