Yep, I only meant it in the crudest of forms. I'm sure defining the
correct syntax will be the hard part.

Guess the next nice step would be to get sieve scripts to be able
to use the aliased special use folders. So you can just say,

Hmm, yeah. This will require some standardization efforts though.
Your example is a bit problematic:
- First, syntax-wise, the argument should be enclosed in double
quotes; the grammar of the Sieve language is a bit sacred. :)
- From what I've read, those SPECIAL-USE flags are not guaranteed
to be unique, so the delivery may become ambiguous. So, it is not
really an alias.
- Making the bare fileinto command accept a SPECIAL-USE flag as an
alternative to a regular folder name may be unwise (potentially
causing naming conflicts, albeit unlikely). Some sort of
:special_use tag would be in order.
The ability to query which folder(s) are used for special purposes
could be an alternative, although that is not ideal either. I am not
sure how to approach this right now.

Stephan.
