Hi,

 I've switched to from POP to IMAP over the past day, and the one
difference that is really annoying that I haven't been able to figure
out so far is when I get new mail, it all goes to the INBOX, and only 
after I click on the INBOX does all the mail get sorted based on my
filters.

That's because that is where your SERVER delivers the mail. In IMAP
land, you are only able to ever have a single folder open at a time and
so we cannot filter INBOX when you are reading MyOtherFolder.

If you want filtering to take affect before mail gets delivered to your
IMAP INBOX, then you need to setup server-side filtering.

Mmmmm. procmail good. I use it to sort messages into my 104 IMAP
folders.
I use procmail here too, but don't have nearly 104 folders...

Works real well...
