Yes. As David said, this is a global IMAP server side behaviour...

Also, as David mentioned, you have to print() stuff yourself, I can't
add options for every detail one might want, that's where Lua comes
handy.  You might try to print() extra information and add the -v
option, and redirect the output to some file...

The -l option is only to log any errors, probably useful when making
imapfilter a daemon...
