Yep. But _I_ don't really have that in mind. That was intended as info,
cause you wrote 'first to get the headers for the filter' and stated, it
'is effectively downloaded twice'.
You only have to get the header twice. If and only if you can filter by
header. And I doubt, you can filter SPAM by header...
So for an effective SPAM filtering you do have to get all the mail and
filter it client-side.
