I suspect that filtering through Sylpheed annotates specific colouring
information on e-mail in one of the specific .sylpheed files, e.g.
.sylpheed-cache.
Note that setting the colour is one of the options within the filtering
rules that are in Sylpheed.

If a different filter mechanism is used (using procmail myself also),
this information is not created by Sylpheed, so colouring then is out of
the question.
Unless someone can hack up a little utility that updates the appropriate
file to set up the colouring (or even call it from procmail).
