Great!

Interesting. So I assume this means that a single message will appear in
multiple "folders", one for each label. Slightly weird, but Sup should
handle dupes fine.

There should be no problem with using Gmail to filter or classify mail
in this manner. I use procmail to do exactly the same thing locally.
One day Sup will use procmail to perform its own filtering, but that
will be an added bonus and won't interfere with any per-source
autoapplied labels.

It's up to you. Sup doesn't play well with others. You can either
run sup-sync --changed every time you use the web interface, or you can
use Sup's superior interface and functionality exclusively. :)
