As we are on this subject, who usually does the sorting into the different 
imap folders? Shall that be done by KMail, or does the imap server support 
filtering?

Should it also be possible to move a message from one imap folder to an other 
(of course later) or to copy a message from an imap folder to a local one?

Also I still don't understand, how that can work, if all mails remain on the 
server and they are only cached locally. My provider offers me 10 MB for 
that, and when I leave all my mails on the server, the space is filled up 
within about 10 days. I would prefer to have all mails from the last few days 
on the server and an archive of all mails I ever recieved locally.

Anyway, for the moment I only work on readonly displaying of the imap folders 
and their content.
