Have a look at this mail for brief directions on how to build imapfilter on
Solaris:

Imapfilter should be able to read the options with or without the "set"
keyword.  This behavior is strange and most of all imapfilter worked fine
during my tests under a Solaris 8 box.  It would be really helpful if you
could compile and run imapfilter with DEBUG messages enabled [0] and send
back the results, as well as the configuration file used.

You can do this easily with the attached Perl script (requires the
Mail::IMAPClient module [1]).  Don't forget to change the $server, $user and
$pass variables.
