Look rather at Sylpheed (not Sylpheed-Claws). It is written in GTK and
in my opinion it is a better e-mail program than thunderbird.

Anyway the filtering rule window can be seen here:

Note the search dialog look much like the filter.

Anyway, if you find it interesting; Go to the Source, Luke ;-)
