As I use IMAP a lot, this turned out to be a little annoying…

Afaict, it works just fine for my use case, so feel free to use your version.  Thanks!

However, for me it looks as if dropping the filter when a mailbox is closed would be a “natural” operation for any mailbox.

Yes, turning on libnetclient debugging, it appears that in my case filtering is implemented using the IMAP “SORT” extension (RFC 5256).  No idea how balsa would deal with servers /not/ supporting it (I think I will temporarily disable detecting the SORT keyword and re-try).

Best,
Albrecht.
