I suggest to use Gmail filter rather than mutt filter. The difference is that
Gmail filter can mark one email with multiple labels, which means you can see
the same email in two or more folders (called labels in Gmail) even there is
only one copy stored in Gmail. btw, the unread sign of one email in different
labels is shared. I think this feature is quite good, though I hate Gmail web
version doesn't follow the RFC about thread.
