KMail's filters can be applied manually as well. And one can have one filter 
matching mails from different servers.

Use cases from the user support front:

Match some criteria for sorting into subfolders. (Obvious case, though people 
would like to use IMAP folders as target as well. usually tell them to us 
dimap then)

Match certain senders, independent from incoming server, and play a 
sound/notifcation

Match a single target mailbox and play a sound/notifcation.

Match anything but do only apply manually.
One user asked how to export all selected messages to a database. He 
successfully completed that task by creating such a "match-all" filter and 
using the filter option to pipe the mails through an executable.
He would've like to have a keyboard accelerator for it but settled with a 
toolbar button.

Cheers,
Kevin
