There are two different issues here.  Ingo creates filtering scripts for
sieve and procmail -- in your case you would want procmail.  The procmail
script will work fine in conjunction with most IMAP servers, including
UW-IMAP.

Realize that the UW-IMAP server itself doesn't have any filtering
capability -- that's the part provided by procmail when the mail is
*delivered*.  For UW-IMAP you would probably want

$conf['script']['path_style'] = 'mbox';

in ingo/configs/conf.php (you can use the Horde admin. interface if we're
talking about the HEAD version of Ingo).
