dovecot - Oct 2013 - Can sieve filter mail based on emails earlier in the thread?

Basically I want the following scenario:

Subscribe to lots of mailing lists
- each filtered into separate folders

When I participate in a thread (by starting it, replying to it, or ... 
setting a flag on an email
in the thread)
- filter into the particular mailing list folder
- AND filter into INBOX (or another folder of my choosing)

I'm thinking for this, the first two can have rules that take into 
account In-Reference-To and
using my domain. But the third case of using a flag... that seems to 
require referencing earlier
emails in the thread.

Is this possible in sieve? Or am I barking up the wrong tree?

I believe gmail can do it, but who knows what they use for their 
filtering...

Thanks for any help anyone provides!

Cheers,

Hugh

So you simply want to make it easier to find your own posts on a busy
list?  Might I suggest you simply use flags instead of copying the msgs
to another folder?  See:
